About this event
Japan's "NINJA" truly existed. Slip into a trick house in Kabukicho, where hidden doors and secret mechanisms reveal the history of the ninja and their concealed tools — an experience that brings out the child in every adult. Feel the tension as you draw a shuriken and release it from your fingertips, then hear it strike the target. Take a katana (replica sword) in hand, and the figure reflected in the mirror is no longer a "traveler," but a samurai. Capture that moment in a photograph.
Still buzzing with excitement, you head to Hanazono Shrine, the guardian shrine of Shinjuku. Within its grounds, the clamor of the city towers fades away, and you take a single deep breath. "Motion" (the ninja) and "stillness" (the shrine) — a special Sunday to fully savor, in half a day, the two faces of Japan flowing through one city.
