Tokyo Sakura Tram Part 5! The last recommended cherry blossom spot is the row of cherry blossom trees at "Omokagebashi".
After passing "Gakushuinshita", you can see the cherry blossoms on the left side toward to "Omokagebashi" !!
By the time the cherry blossoms start to falling the petals fall on the water, revealing a pink surface. Watching the falling cherry blossoms is also very beautiful and recommended because of its atmosphere.

Next stop "Koshinzuka" is close to Sugamo Shopping Street, a famous shopping spot known as a Grandma's Harajuku, and you can walk to "Togenuki Jizoson", which is said to have benefits for healing and improving diseases.
It is said that wearing red something will help prevent illness or give you more luckness, and many people buy red pants to avoid auspicious events! At the shop named Sugamo no Maruji, the store where red pants originated, not only red pants but also many red items are sold!
There is also the unique mailbox at post office with Sugamo's caracter!
And then, after 5 stops is Kishibojin Mae Station. You can see the shrine called Kishimojin. The name of the station is Kishibojin, but the name of the shrine is Kishimojin.
In shrine, there is a candy shop "Kami Kawaguchiya" Founded in 1781 in Edo period, and it has 239 years history !
