Asakusa is a popular tourist spot in Tokyo. When spring arrives, the Ichiyo Sakura Festival is held in the back of Asakusa Kannon. The main event of the festival is the Edo Yoshiwara Oiran Dochu, where participants wearing spectacular clothes take part in a parade. There are also refreshment booths and free markets where you can enjoy shopping. Drop by and check out the festival when you travel to Asakusa. (Event planned for April 8)
