The stone has been worshipped\u00a0for over 600 years and today only a small portion remains above the ground. The Shitamachi area was home to merchants and artisans during the Edo period, although after the economic boom, Shitamachi struggled to hang on to the traditions and culture of Japan. Because of this the area today feels a far cry away from that of the more popular areas of Tokyo, but the residents of Shitamachi like it that way, or so I have been told.<a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/oita-noka-minshuku-kitsuki\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33516\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33516 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_5074-375x500.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Tateishi Nakamise Shopping Street<\/h2>\n<p>Exiting <strong>the Keisei Tateishi train station<\/strong> it is quite easy to find the<strong> Tateishi Nakamise Shopping Street<\/strong>. A large sign hangs above the covered entrance, and shops line either side of the boulevard. This shopping street was originally opened as a black market in post-war Japan in 1954 and has remained a celebrated location for the local culture since then. The shopping area boasts five different shopping streets, each with its own unique vibe. The largest by far is also the most modern, but right next door you can find a smaller alleyway with standing room-only restaurants and deli-style buffets. Outside the station, a tiny window shop sells croquettes to waiting customers, and next door cuts of fresh meat are displayed in the small smudged windows of a butcher. A line of people waits outside a popular <strong>ramen <\/strong>restaurant, while three men sit on stools, the only thing visible through the half curtains are their backs poking out of the dimly lit restaurant while they enjoy their meal.<a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/shikoku-ozu-breathtaking-scenery\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33519\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33519 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_0783-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/oita-kitsuki-castle\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33518\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33518 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_0792-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/tokyo-hakone-luxurious-stay-prince-hotels\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33521\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33521 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_0782-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can find places like this in central Tokyo, but rarely with so much gruff charm. It is easy to see that the people here have furiously held on to the Shitamachi culture that made this place what it was. Today it may seem somewhat\u00a0sparse at first glance, but if you are interested in finding the truly <strong>hidden gems and forgotten places of Japan<\/strong>, look no further than Tateishi.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/shiga-omihachiman\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33514\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33514 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_0811-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/ehime-ozu-old-town\/33522-revision-v1\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33530\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33530 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_0785-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Nonbe-Yokocho:\u00a0 Tateishi&#8217;s Drinking Alley<\/h2>\n<p>Just across the train tracks from Tateishi&#8217;s Nakamise Shopping area, and somewhat tucked away between the buildings you can find the\u00a0<strong>popular drinking alleys<\/strong> in Tateishi. While they may look somewhat frightening and broken down in the daylight, I have heard that in the evening these tiny bars come alive. There are two main streets comprising <strong>Nonbe-Yokocho<\/strong>, each one just as narrow and fascinating as the other. I have heard that the interior of these small drinking holes outstrips the exterior appearance. If you happen to be in the area, or if you decide to make a trip to Shitamachi to see the sights, make sure to stop by Tateishi in the evening <strong>for a quick meal and a drink.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/tokyo-hakone-luxurious-stay-prince-hotels\/33521-revision-v1\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33533\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33533 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_0787-500x418.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"500\" height=\"418\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/air\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33517\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33517 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_0809-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/ehime-ozu-old-town\/33522-revision-v1\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33531\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33531 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_0803-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/ozu-guesthouse-shiromachi\/ozu1-3-500x375\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33525\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33525 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/voyapon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_5075-375x500.jpg\" alt=\"Tateishi in Tokyo is artisan\u00a0and merchant quarters during the Edo Period.\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Keisei Train Pass<\/h2>\n<p>Tateishi Station is only served by <strong>the Keisei train lines<\/strong>.
