Many visitors do not realize that beyond Tokyo's shiny architecture there are neighborhoods unchanged from a century ago. Shitamachi is one of these neighborhoods, lovingly referred to by the Japanese as “downtown". Like most shitamachi neighborhoods, Yamaka is a low-rise, almost rural place that makes Tokyo lovable and livable, taking us back to another era. Modern Tokyo has sprouted a new icon: Tokyo Skytree which stands in many a backdrop of Shitamachi street scenes.
