Discover Tokyo’s Rich Cultural Tapestry
Tokyo’s vibrant city center is an enthralling tourist destination, attracting millions of visitors each year from across Japan and around the world. But sometimes, you just want to take time out and escape the hustle and bustle, to recharge your batteries and visit places away from well-worn tourist routes. This time, we have selected spots where you can learn about and enjoy historic traditions and culture firmly rooted in local communities, but which are also innovating with the changing times. These mellow outings will appeal to well-seasoned travelers with sophisticated tastes, revealing another side of Tokyo, a greater diversity of lifestyles, and a richer cultural tapestry. These articles, part of an ongoing series, were produced with assistance from three local municipalities: Fussa, Kunitachi, and Mizuho, to introduce visitors to a wider range of unique experiences across Tokyo. We delve into (and taste) traditional and modern sake and beer brewing at Ishikawa Brewery in Fussa City, and explore Japan’s unique heritage of urban agriculture at Hatakenbo in Kunitachi City. Finally, we visit Koshinkan, in Mizuho Town, an Edo period (1603-1868) , house with a fascinating history.
