Asakusa is an oldest shopping area in Tokyo. The shopping area is called as ‘Nakamise Shopping Arcade’. There are a lot of colorful stalls selling Japanese traditional food and toys.
There is also an old temple next to the shopping area. In front of the temple, there is a large incense burner. It is for the purification of people’s bodies before they enter the temple. It is said that if the smoke coming from the incense can cure the sickness of body. In addition, it is said that if the smoke touches your head, you would get smarter. 
There is a large wooden fortune telling stand. To use it, first select a stick from one of the metal cylinders. Next give the stick to the temple official who, in return, will issue you with a slip of paper. If the paper says you have bad luck, by then tying it to the branch of a tree or the special rack provided, it will apparently blow away.
