Insider tip

Wash at the taps before you get in, and keep your small towel out of the water. Shampoo and body soap are free. One bathroom has a sauna and an outdoor resting area, and the two sides swap every Friday. Open 4pm to 10pm, closed Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, so plan it for the weekend.

Around Shibamata

Tora-san's hometown, a carved temple and the last rowed ferry in Tokyo

Shibamata sits at Tokyo's eastern edge on the Edo River, and it keeps the low-rise shitamachi streetscape the rest of the city lost. There's a 200-metre temple approach of dango and cracker shops, a temple covered in extraordinary wood carvings, and a hand-rowed ferry to Chiba. It's famous across Japan as the hometown of Tora-san, and in 2018 it became the first place in Tokyo named an Important Cultural Landscape.

Shibamata has 6 places on the Roam Tokyo map: 2 landmarks, 1 shrine or temple, 1 museum, 1 market and 1 bathhouse. Read the Shibamata guide.
