Shinsekai is a famous district built around the Tsutenkaku Tower, often called the Eifel Tower of Japan. What makes the area unique is its retro vibe. This street food tour will take you on a trip through Japan's past and history while introducing you to local dishes. While Shinsekai is famous for kushikatsu (battered skewers of fish, meat, and vegetables), the area is full of typical Japanese street foods made with love by local residents. Leisurely explore the local shops and historic atmosphere. If you prefer to wander the area when it's quieter, schedule a tour for mid-day. To see it at peak traffic, schedule your visit in the evening.
