Shibamata is known as the setting for the movie “Otoko wa Tsuraiyo”. When you leave the station, you will be greeted by a bronze statue of the main character, Tora-san. The street is the approach leading to “Taishakuten Theme Kyoji” where you can see the wooden gate and the elaborate “Lotus Sutra narrative sculpture”, and there are many old-fashioned Japanese sweets shops and restaurants. On a quiet street behind the temple, there is a museum, a public bath, and “Yamamoto-tei” where you can enjoy tea at the old mansion. The situation at that time is introduced on the YouTube channel.
