Just 50 meters far from the Asakusa Metro Station and a five minute walk from the Sanja-sama shrine, there is a quiet and peaceful place perfect for wandering, jogging, biking, relaxing or taking pictures; I'm talking about a promenade by the Sumida River. Supplied with plenty of benches, fountains, toilets and an adjunct park, the Asakusa Sumida River promenade is an excellent choice for spending an evening out.
In addition, regular river cruises depart from this spot, for visitors who want to take a boat tour through the city.
