01
Where is Yoshiwara?
Yoshiwara centres on Senzoku 4-chome in Taito City. There is no station called Yoshiwara, and today's postal address does not use Yoshiwara as a neighbourhood name.
Arrive in Tokyo, choose a nearby station, then continue on foot, by taxi or by a pickup offered by the shop you booked. Pickup arrangements are not district-wide.
02
History & culture
The Edo-period licensed quarter and today's businesses belong to different legal and social systems. Read the timeline before treating historic images as a picture of the present.
