Ryōgoku is the spiritual home of sumo, Japan's national sport, where it's common to see wrestlers in traditional dress milling about the iconic Kokugikan stadium. The district's identity is deeply rooted in the Edo period (1603–1868), a legacy preserved in its exceptional museums. The Tokyo Metropolitan Edo-Tokyo Museum (reopening in spring 2026) offers a vast, immersive journey through the city's history, while the sleek Sumida Hokusai Museum celebrates the life and iconic woodblock prints of the local ukiyo-e master. Beyond the museums, the area is saturated with sumo culture. You can taste Chankonabe (the wrestlers' hearty stew) in local restaurants and may glimpse trainees from nearby stables. With its historic Ekoin Temple and traditional craft workshops, Ryōgoku offers a compelling, culturally rich escape into old Tokyo.

The Rainbow Bridge is more than a transport link; it's a defining feature of Tokyo Bay's skyline, connecting the mainland to the futuristic Odaiba district. Its 798-metre span includes dedicated pedestrian walkways on both its north and south sides. You can cross the bridge on foot in 20–30 minutes with uninterrupted views. The southern side provides the classic panorama of Odaiba's skyline, while the northern side frames Tokyo Tower against the city. While officially named the Tokyo Bay Connector Bridge, it earns its popular name from the colourful illumination of its white towers at night, creating a romantic silhouette. Note that the walkways close at 9pm in summer and 6pm in winter. For the best photographs, time your crossing for sunset when the city lights begin to sparkle.
