The Poem of Urbanism

Streets as the main attraction of Tokyo

The streets of Tokyo are not just a road from one sight to another. These are whole stories that are not told in museums, but you can read it by yourself.

Sky entangled in wires, night-lights drowned in a river, lots of flowers along the houses, buddhist temples side by side with skyscrapers, ubiquitous vending machines, crowds of people with identical transparent umbrellas. All these stories collect in one large urban poem. And Tokyo will read it to you showing the night silence of Shinto shrines, breathing the smell of hot soba in Asakusa, listening to a tune of street musicians in Ueno. Perhaps, the streets tell you about the city more than anything else does.

What about to try listening to the Tokyo street poem?
