George!!! Hope you had a nice rest after your loooong trip. We have all missed the sweet/shy KZbinr George! You are always so kind and grateful to others ❤ Thx for the nice tour around town 😊 Be Well, Be Safe, Be Happy 💕

[@GeorgeJapan]

Hahaha thank you! I had a nice rest and it’s time to start my new journey again. You too, thanks for watching :)

[@PsychoSpiral]

I'm glad this video popped up on my KZbin feed. I'll be staying at a nearby hotel in Asakusa in Mar 2024. I'll definitely be checking out the places and be sure to visit Kamejuu

[@ceciliadelamora5930]

I came across your channel today. Leaving in exactly a month today, I loved every bit of this video. Thanks so much!

This is definitely a detail guide to Asakusa !! Thanks George

[@GeorgeJapan]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@WorldTrotterHereandBeyond]

Good job!😊

[@etherdog]

George, one thing to note about the Asakusa Tourist Information Center is that it was designed by Kengo Kuma, a brilliant architect!

[@GeorgeJapan]

I should’ve mentioned that! Thanks for letting me know

[@katkaat]

Welcome back!!!! Good to see your video again~ I love Asakusa ♡

[@GeorgeJapan]

Thanks for watching! Me too, one of the best spots in Tokyo

[@speedoftheshire]

Ahh! Now I'm craving dorayaki! I miss all the delicious food from when I grew up in Yokosuka. Your videos always bring me back!

I found you back George The info from your channel about Tokyo is most informative! Thank you for sharing bro. We are heading to Tokyo in August. See you there if possible bro! ❤💐💐💐

[@Tung_LE_Australia]

Thank you kindly George for the very wonderful videos about Japan and its popuplar specilities. Nothing is better than experiences and introductions from a local guide that is you handsome and generous Japanese guy for this very informative video. It is meaningful for us who are coming to Japan this August for all of the best we want from Japan bro! ❤❤❤💐💐💐

[@silviastanziola659]

Awesome video, George! I didn't see that they sold melon pan with ice cream, that sounds like a good combo. It looks very busy there again, I guess that tourism is back to normal - I'm glad!

[@GeorgeJapan]

Thanks for watching! Yeah finally the tourism is back to normal

[@qaphqa]

It's so good to see you again George!!! I really like the video mostly in voice-over. Sometimes it is possible to speak to camera and that's cool, and sometimes it's so much better for audience, youtuber, and the people around to do a voice-over. ♡♡♡♡♡

[@GeorgeJapan]

Thanks for watching! :) Yeah I’m more comfortable doing voiceover than talking to camera outside haha

[@thetsoe5318]

Thank you so much for this video. I am visiting japan in 6 days. This street is the one i wanted to visit. I wanted to experience street/hand foods and i love shooping for suverniors. Thank you for this video!!

[@ruan_1119]

Great video and great travel guide, George!!! 😄 I was missing the videos. Japan is so amazing and the Asakusa area is one of the places I really want to see. In future videos you could do guides teaching tourists how to get around Japan, i.e. how to buy a boarding ticket, how to get around stations, how to catch a train. By the way, this "Come on!" is nostalgic. It'll be a year since you were here.

[@GeorgeJapan]

Thanks for watching! :) Sure, I might do those as well

[@lostpoundpuppy]

You have such an adorable voice! And yes, it is very soothing. You have a lovely accent too, and speak English better than a lot of people I know who speak it as their first language! :3

Yeah! It's been awhile watching your videos! Glad your back & this video is perfect! I'll be heading over to Asakusa in a few days and you have some excellent information! Going to take the Tokyo water cruise over there from Odaiba. What place would you recommend for gyoza over in Asakusa?

[@GeorgeJapan]

I’m back! Thank you for watching :) I’d recommend “Gyoza Bar Keisuke”. Hope you enjoy Asakusa🇯🇵

I went to Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Center last year, its a beautiful building itself and has an amazing view. Besides we could enjoy a free activity, there were three awesome and kind old ladies that taught us to draw a kanji in ink.

[@saberkite]

I love visiting Asakusa. There's still a lot of places I could explore there and I will when I come back. About melon pan, I first heard of it when reading the manga Ranma 1/2. I thought it was melon flavored, so when I finally got to visit Japan, I got one from the grocery. It didn't have any flavor, so I thought it was because it was a mass produced kind of bread. I went to that same store in Asakusa, got melon pan. Still no flavor, but it was delicious.

[@ohsocialmio3884]

Hi George, i have a question about the souvenirs shops. I heard they also sell "Dai-Gohonzon souvenirs" have you ever seen them?

[@terrymacdad8742]

I visited Tokyo in 1999 and I remember Asakusa especially Asakusa Jinja shrine I believe it was named, amazing 😮

[@tokyoneighborhoodsride992]

The eastern part of Tokyo, Asakusa and Ryogoku, was the entertainment center of Edo Tokyo until the Early Showa era, but in the 1970s, the center of Tokyo's fashion and culture shifted to the west area. When I was in junior high , Asakusa was left behind and became deserted, with the big old movie theaters and theatres being dirty, many shady shops, the back streets smelling bad, and unsophisticated men hanging around the off-track betting parlours. Today's Asakusa, clean and tidy, bustling with foreigners, seems like a dream.

[@OtakuLover20]

Not gonna lie Melon Bread looks exactly like a Mexican dessert we have called conchas

[@TeresaDLeecomedy]

Asakusa is beautiful but I mostly avoided crowds and liked Ueno better in Tokyo. Except for the day I went to the taiko drum museum, which is another fun experience in Asakusa. Thanks for showing me the sights I didn't brave the crowds for!
