About Taito

Taito gathers some of Tokyo's defining sights, including Asakusa and Ueno, and Japanese tradition is alive in its streets. Pass through Kaminarimon and walk Nakamise-dori and the old-town atmosphere of the Edo period is everywhere. Sensoji is the oldest temple in Tokyo and enormously popular with visitors from overseas. Ueno Park alone holds the Tokyo National Museum, the National Museum of Western Art, and Ueno Zoo — more culture, art, and nature than one day can cover. Riverside walks along the Sumida are close by, Odaiba is about 20 minutes away by train, and Akihabara about 10. Shinjuku is roughly 25 minutes and Shibuya about 30. Haneda Airport is about 40 minutes by train and Narita about 60. Taito is the pick for travellers who want Japan's history and scenery in full.
