Other walks close to Kiyosumi-Shirakawa.

Sorted by distance from the start of kiyosumi & fukagawa: the canals and the coffee. Good for stitching together a longer day.

The wrestlers' district by the river — the arena, the hotpot, an Edo garden, and the Sumida.

A lane of griddle-batter restaurants, a fishermen's quarter, and a red bridge under the towers.

The bridge that is kilometre zero, the lions on the store steps, and the shops that outlived the shoguns.

The restored 1914 station, a rooftop garden over the tracks, and the best street in the business district.
