Asakusa is a district in Taito ward, Tokyo, and is most famous for Sensoji Temple dedicated to the bodhisattva Kannon. For many years Asakusa was the major entertainment district in Tokyo but has been surpassed by Shinjuku and Roppongi in its role as a pleasure district. Nowadays it is happy to bask in its retro charm and revel in its colourful festivals.
