Sumida Park ( Whale Playground)
Another park worth wandering too if you’re in Asakusa with kids is the playground in Sumida Park – just by the river.
A lovely friend told me about this one and it is a true gem – and only 7 minutes walk from Sensoji Temple.
This playground is also just one train station from Tokyo Skytree ( you call also go there by foot as it’s approx 14 mins walk or 8 mins, approx 800 yen in a cab)
There is a Tully’s and a little cafe just next to the playground too.
