I write the second half of the course in this post.
The half point is near Ginza, one of the busiest and sophisticated commercial area in Tokyo. The Cross of Ginza 4 Cho-me is used in many cinemas, TV programs and photos. The main street is vehicle free in the weekend. Couples and families enjoy walking and drinking.
I moved northeastwards through Kayaba-cho (where securities houses have their offices), Nihonbashi area (where old craft shops and merchants open their offices), Kuramae (Sumida River area) to Asakusa. These areas remain the Edo-period atmosphere. I made a turn at Asakusa and moved back to Ginza.
I walked through Kabuki-za theater, Tsukiji-Honganji Temple, a Hindu style Buddhist Temple, to the Tokyo Bay area. Many islands in this area were artificially built in the past 300 years. The town names in the srea include Tsukishima, Harumi, Toyosu, and Ariake.Yurikamome monorail train runs in this area. There are nationwide famous tennis court, (Ariake Coliseum) national cancer hospital and other modern institutes. The goal is Tokyo Big Sight, a huge exhibition center.
