'Asakusabashi' (浅草橋) is a neighborhood of
Taito, Tokyo.
The district is known for its large stores selling traditional
Japanese dolls (although some of the largest doll stores, such as Kyugetsu and Shugestu, are located across Edo-dori avenue, thus belonging to the
Yanagibashi neighborhood) and it hosts a very large concentration of beads stores.
The Ryuhoku campus of the Lycée franco-japonais de Tokyo (French high school) is also located in this neighborhood.
Transportation
Asakusabashi Station on the
Sobu Line, as well as the station of the same name on the
