Monzen-nakacho
Tomioka Hachiman Shrine, famous for the Fukagawa Hachiman Festival, one of the three great festivals of Edo, and Fukagawa Fudo Hall, with its impressive main hall whose exterior walls are inscribed with mantras of Fudo Myoo (Acala), attract many worshippers each day. The shopping streets are lined with long-established shops and restaurants, and renowned stores, allowing visitors to take a stroll while enjoying food. The area's proximity to Tokyo Bay and the Sumida River is also appealing, as the waterfront scenery displays different atmospheres throughout the four seasons.
