 Tips about Taishakuten Sandō

Taishakuten Sando is a nostalgic stroll through a Showa-era shopping street lined with traditional shops selling special snacks like dango and unagi.

-What to do: Take a leisurely walk down Taishakuten Sando to soak in the retro Showa ambiance, visit the old temple at the end of the street, and explore the Tora San museum nearby.
- What to eat: Indulge in nostalgic snacks like dango, sembei, and unagi, and try the famous kusa dango (green rice dumplings).
- What to avoid: Avoid visiting late in the day as many shops close early, and the area can become quiet and deserted.
- Tips: Arrive in the morning for a peaceful atmosphere, escape the crowds, and enjoy the charm of the street without the hustle. Finish your visit with tea at Yamamoto-tei for a reflective end to your nostalgic journey.
