Scenes of Asakusa

Asakusa is one of the most famous and popular towns among Tokyo visitors, the place isn't a destination for people living in Tokyo to make frequent visits though. This was probably my 2nd or 3rd time to be there. It was quite fun to stroll around.

Asakusa used to be a kind of capital of entertainment
and show business. 

Takeshi Kitano (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takeshi_Kitano)
started his career as a comedian and spent his early years
at this house. He was an elevator boy when he didn't get
show time
