Just some recent pics of walking around Asakusa. I really underestimated how awesome Asakusa is, only having gone twice once during my year in Japan. The first time was kind of "off-season;" it wasn't summer time and the weather wasn't great. The second time (in these photos) was the beginning of summer, and it was one of the most beautiful experiences I've had in Japan. The sun was out, incense were burning, everyone was happy. It was like my second to last day in Japan before my short break back to the US, and I was really glad I did it. Although I live in the colder, Azabu-juban area, I'm going to be taking many more trips up to the Asakusa area when I get back.
