Tips from locals
Asakusa : Direct train by GINZA line. The old Edo era is still be there. Walk distance to SKYTREE
15 min walk from my palce the famous Asakusa is. It will be a pleasent walk to there, crossing over a river. You can take a water bus to Odaida from here too.
Asakusa is a traditional town which has preserved the Edo-way of Japan. It houses Sensoji, the oldest temple in Tokyo of the Kannon Bodhisattva (c.645). Edo is the ancient name of Tokyo. There are plenty of places of interest around here such as Kaminarimon red gate, famous for its large lanterns, and Nakamise shopping street. A must-visit.
Asakusa is the center of Tokyo's shitamachi (literally "low city"), one of Tokyo's districts, where an atmosphere of the Tokyo of past decades survives.
