### 🌟 Local Neighbourhood Walk & 🔥 Fire temple 🌟

Step back in time with us as we explore the charming and traditional neighbourhood of Monzennakacho 🏘️. Tucked away in eastern Tokyo, this area is rich with Edo-period charm, peaceful canals, historic shopping streets, and an old-school atmosphere that’s perfect for a relaxed afternoon walk. We’ll uncover some hidden local spots, soak in the ambience, and enjoy discovering a lesser-known side of Tokyo together.

One of the highlights of this walk will be a stop at the beautifully landscaped Kiyosumi Gardens 🌿, a traditional Japanese garden known for its elegant strolling paths, reflective pond, and carefully placed stones collected from all over Japan. It’s a peaceful escape in the middle of the city and a great spot for photos or a quiet moment of reflection.

Toward the end of our walk, we’ll visit a local temple where we may be able to witness a fire purification ceremony 🔥 (subject to schedule). These kinds of rituals offer a rare glimpse into Japanese spiritual practices and add a meaningful cultural layer to our adventure.

This outing is perfect for anyone looking to experience Tokyo’s traditional side, enjoy a scenic walk, and meet friendly folks along the way 📸. Whether you're a Tokyo newbie or a long-time resident, we promise you'll see something new!
