Overview
We're located at Exit 3a of Kudanshita Station, and we're starting our journey back in time!
First stop: Yasukuni Shrine (靖国神社). Heroes, memory, and controversy. We'll talk about why it's so controversial and the different reactions it generates. War heroes or something more? Then, we'll head to the Nippon Budokan (日本武道館), a stadium steeped in history and cultural significance, from a sacred place for martial arts to a Beatles concert that changed everything!
We'll come across the Imperial Army Headquarters, which, beneath architecture rarely seen in Japan, holds some secrets we'll discover. Then, we'll enter the Imperial Palace Gardens (皇居東御苑)! A fortress welcoming us, and the ruins of the legendary Edo Castle. Why was this castle so important, and what was its purpose?. I want to share the answers to all your questions and much more with you on this tour.
Reserve your spot and discover Tokyo with me!
Space is limited, so don't wait. See you on the tour!
