July Program at the Kabukiza Theatre: Suehirogari, Single Act Tickets (July 2026)

Castle Hopping: Edo Castle (March 2026)

Slipping into the Imperial Palace East Gardens to fill an empty morning. Awed by a keep base that has stood brand new for 370 years, replaying Chushingura at the Great Pine Corridor, and failing to buy a single stamp or castle seal.

A lunch where light pouring through the windows felt just right. In a back alley of Omotesando, I took my time with wood-fired Neapolitan pizza, from pomegranate soda to tiramisu.
