For an entirely different perspective on this sprawling city, a cruise along the Sumida may be your best bet. The 40 minute cruise is an especially welcome relief after a morning of walking around the city searching for sites of interest. Along the way you'll pass under a dozen historic bridges, each one unique and architecturally interesting. At the end of the cruise you'll be perfectly positioned for a walk around Asakusa (Old Downtown Edo).
