Tokyo: where both tradition and the latest trends coexist. Join us on a journey to discover the real Tokyo as we dive into its historic old towns and encounter many fun surprises along the way. This time, we visit the Kuramae area, located along the Sumida River. Pictures by the riverside reveal the history of the area. We discover why there are so many toy businesses in Kuramae. Old river cruise boats tell the tale of how this was a geisha area. Finally, we investigate the remains of Tokyo's old canal system. We learn how Kuramae became a town of artisans and a home for a vibrant Indian community. We delve into the secrets of Kuramae: the old storage district.
