Japan - The last Tokyo's streetcar
The Toei Streetcat (Toden), Arakawa line, is the onely one streetcar remaining line in Tokyo. With of total lenght of 12 kilometers, the line runs between the Minowabashi station located in the Taito ward (Taito-ku) in the Northeast of Tokyo, and the Waseda sation located in the Shinjuku ward (Shinjuku-ku).

The complete trip takes approximately 50 minutes, but -and it's a part of the intrest- you can enjoy for a day or an half-day trip by stopping at a few stations for sightseeing. The route aboard the old-style tram is quite charming and many spots are located along the line: small food shops, museums, parks, temples and shopping streets.

The One-Day Economy Pass(Ichi-nichi Josha Ken) will not charge your budget with its 400 yens and with which you can get-on and get-off so many times you want and experience the different car from retro to modern design.
