Why Travelers Love This
Overview
Even if you don’t know the name Katsushika Hokusai, you have probably seen his famous masterpiece The Great Wave off Kanagawa. While I am not an art historian, I deeply admire Katsushika Hokusai. I would love to share the Sumida area where he spent much of his life and explore the places connected to his story together. On this tour, you will also learn about the Edo period when Hokusai lived and Japanese sumo culture, Japan’s national sport.
