The shopping street has a history of several centuries, and always packed with people want to have some souvenirs back to their home.

The legend says that in the year 628, two brothers fished a statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy, out of the Sumida River, and even though they put the statue back into the river, it always returned to them.
