Shops open around 10 or 11, closes near to 5 to 6pm. Best to visit early, then head west towards ueno, akihabara, ginza or tokyo station. Once done, head west again to shinjuku or shibuya for late night activities.

scusa il ritardo....e' possibile ma ci stai stretto ,e' sempre affollatissimo.e dovresti un po; correre se ce la fai...buona fortuna..

Hi there Heidistar99 , Sorry for the late reply .The two hotels are right next to each other , as our fellow travelers wrote here . Asakusa is very interesting : Of coarse you will visit Asakusa Shrine ; Sensoji Temple ; Hozomon Gate ; The Budhist (4 levels) Temple and the pedestrian street market . Make sure not to miss the Asakusa Culture Tourist info. center , with its upper floor observation balcony , and enjoy a drink at the little bar there . enjoying watching through the window the panorama down below .

9000 yen for 30 minutes

..vai tranquillo che è sempre aperto a meno che non abbiano cambiato.

Lots of restaurants and little bars open, but definitely quieter at night. The temple is beautiful at night when the lights are on.

Mid range hotel sharing double ¥7000-8000. Food per person per meal ¥ 500-700. Trains ¥ 500-1000 per person per day. Entrance fees ¥ 1000-2000 per person per day. I'd say 200 USD per 2 persons per day. I follow the golden rule for travelers......always carry half the goods you think you will need and carry double the money you think you will need.

Hi there..... Wow you guys are lucky, I can't wait to go back!! Asakusa is one of the best places to be based (in my opinion).... Trains are easy to navigate once you get your bearings. Make sure you get a Suica or Pasmo card - ask your travel agent if they can get one for you with your Japan Rail Pass - if you're getting one of those too. Either one of those cards makes it easy to use the subway system as you wont have to fiddle with change and you can top them up when required. If you need to get the train from the Airport you get on the NEX train. This can be bought at the airport on arrival. The best app/website to have is HYPERDIA.....this makes train travel soooooo easy. And be sure to organise to collect a pocket wifi dongle on arrival - this is a must if you want internet connection whenever you need it. Unless you read fluent Japsnese it is very hard to know what you are signing up for when you use free wifi. Not too sure about anime, but there is a centre in Tokyo - check out other forums on TA. Shopping - where do I start??? Shinjuku, Harijuku, Daiso shops, brilliant massive department stores - you won't find it hard to shop there. Good luck with your trip!!

Asakusa n Ueno are the older areas of Tokyo. They are not as developed or noisy as Shinjuku or Shibuya. If you like a more relax environment, I suggest Ueno. It has a large park that is not congested on most days and ideal for a morning jog. Asakusa is nearby, 1-2 MRT stops. Try staying in a few locations, the feel is significantly different. I stayed in Ueno, Ginza n Shinjuku.

Yes, you can.
