The Flashy Newest Izakaya Spot in Asakusa! You Can Enjoy Japanese Festive Mood And Foods – “Asakusa Yokocho”

This time, we’re going to introduce the “Food and Festival Hall of Fame, Asakusa Yokocho”, (食と祭りの殿堂 浅草横町) which opens along the Asakusa hoppy street that lines with taverns with an old-fashioned atmosphere. On the 4th floor of the Tokyo Rakutenchi Asakusa Building, there are 7 unique eateries serving various popular izakaya dishes that are decorated neon with vivid colors and signboards. In addition, the yokocho also has some performances where you can experience the festive mood. Please visit the food hall and try to take photogenic or moviegenic photos and videos.

“Food and Festival Hall of Fame, Asakusa Yokocho” opened on July 1st, 2022. With the concept of ‘enjoy the meal while experiencing Japanese traditional culture, flashy decorations and signboards create a lively atmosphere like a festival day. Among them, what we especially recommend the most is ‘Wind Chime Circuit’. The colorful wind chimes arrange in a row and the red and black goldfish are depicted on the floor. It’s also a good idea to dress up in Kimono at ‘Kimono Rental Wargo’ and take pictures.

There are many interesting restaurants such as ‘Hanmart’ where you can enjoy authentic Korean food with Korean soju Chamisul, and ‘THE WORLD CHAMPION IZAKAYA Rocky Kanai’ with plenty of meat. You will be excited about the photogenic and moviegenic foods and drinks.

Furthermore, there’s the exciting trick where street performers show up every day and liven up the mood. The yokocho will also host the events such as Awa Odori, Bon Odori, and Yosakoi on weekends. Let’s dance together and enjoy the festive mood.
