After Shibamata, I took a train to Oshiage station located at Tokyo Skytree.
Found a nice Tonkatsu restaurant there and had an early lunch.

| Lunch set 1680yen |
Wasn't really keen to go up Skytree (expensive and long queue), so I took a train to Asakusa and walked to Sumida riverside to check out the sakura over there.

It was 20th March 2013 on this day, the Sakura at Sumida was just under full bloom.
From Sumida, I walked towards Kappabashi street, where they sell kitchen equipment and supplies.
 |
| Lots of people walking from Sumida to Sensoji |
 |
 |
| Very crowded at Sensoji |
After quite a long walk (about 20mins) from Sumida, I finally arrived at Kappabashi.

 |
| There are also shops here which sells sample foods you see on restaurant display |
 |
Can you believe all these are not real food? Looked so realistic.
 |
| Ahh...my fav...Katsudon. Looks good enough to eat. |
 |
| Shop selling ticket vending machines |
 |
| This shop sells restaurant uniforms I assume |
Time to leave Kappabashi. No way I'm gonna walk all the way back to Asakusa station since my feet were already aching. Decided to take a loop bus from Kappabashi to Ueno station (100yen).

From Ueno station, I headed for Tokyo station for the Character Street at Tokyo Station's basement.
