Asakusa
Getting Here and Around
Getting here by subway from Ueno Station (Ginza Line, Ueno Station to Asakusa Station, ¥160) or taxi (approximately ¥900) is most convenient. Asakusa is the last stop (eastbound) on the Ginza line.
Another way get to Asakusa is by river-bus ferry from Hinode Pier, which stops at the southwest corner of Sumida Koen.
