Walking Routes in Yanesen

Walking through Yanesen is the best way to enjoy its nostalgic charm and unhurried pace. Two essential spots anchor any visit: Nezu Shrine, with its iconic vermilion torii gates, and Yanaka Ginza, a lively street brimming with local snacks and retro shops. Quiet lanes, historic temples, quaint cafés, and countless small discoveries stretch out around these highlights. With limited time, simply trim a few stops or shortcut between the anchors. With more time, explore freely and let the neighborhood unfold at your own pace.
