#### Discover this interesting neighbourhood known for its many traditional doll shops that play an important part in local tradition.

Yanagibashi is part of the Asakusabashi area of Tokyo in the Taitō ward. Asakusabashi’s biggest draws for most locals are its huge wholesale stores and its doll shops. Most of the doll shops are concentrated in the Yanagibashi neighbourhood. 

Visit Yanagibashi to window-shop in the old-fashioned doll stores and to look out across the Kanda River at the yakatabune boats, traditional low barges that travel up and down the water. You can also board one of the boats here yourself to enjoy a cruise along the Kanda River or the Sumida River, which joins it.

In the 17th century, Yanagibashi rose to prominence as one of the top entertainment areas of the city. Walk along the riverfront today and imagine what this stretch of water looked like when it had geisha houses dotted along its length. Over time, other entertainment districts took over from Yanagibashi, and today the nights here are generally quiet.

Notice how many doll shops are located in Yanagibashi. To get a sense of what the dolls are like, visit Kyugetsu, a doll shop that is less strictly targeted at locals than some of the more exclusive options.

In Japanese tradition, at the beginning of March girls are given Hina dolls styled in the old-fashioned manner of the Heian court. Boys receive samurai dolls at the start of May. Other dolls on sale include kimekomi dolls, which are made from wood or clay.

Make time to visit some of the shrines within walking distance of Yanagibashi: Ichogaoka Hachiman Shrine, Sakaki Shrine and Suga Shrine.

Another sight of historic interest in the area is the pretty green Yanagibashi Bridge. Its current version dates from the early 20th century.

To get to Yanagibashi, take the subway to the Asakusabashi station. When you exit, cross Edo-dori Avenue, the main road running close to the station. Alternatively travel to the Ryogoku station instead and cross the Sumida River, which involves a slightly longer walk.
