외국인 관광객이 손에 넣는 가이드 북 중 하나에 Lonely Planet 시리즈가 있습니다.
이 가이드북(10th edition-Aug 2015)에서 니혼바시가 어떻게 설명되어 있는지를 보면 “인형초”에 대해서는 다음과 같이 언급되어 있습니다.
NINGYOCHO
East of Nihombashi, towards the Sumida-gawa, is Ningyocho, a shitamachi (old downtown Tokyo) area well worth exploring for its small temples, shrines, craft shops, food stalls, and atmospheric places to eat and drink. Ningyo means doll - these and puppets were once made here when Ningyocho was a hub for the performance arts. Kabuki is still performed at Meiji-za (메이지자리; 2-31-1 Nihonbashi-Hamacho) theater.
and you can view the dolls and puppets of Jusaburo Tsujimura at Jusaburo-kan (주사브로 관; 3-6-9 Nihonbashi-Ningyocho).
그러나 이 「쥬사브로 관」은 「도쿄 인형 마을의 아틀리에는 2015년 9월 12일을 기하여 일반 공개를 종료했습니다. 히로시마현 미요시시의【츠지무라 슈사부로 인형관】에서 계속 전시를 하고 있으므로, 아무쪼록 잘 부탁 말씀드립니다」라고 하는 것으로, 이미 폐관되어, 흔적은 술집이 되어 있었습니다.
Zone in on Amazake Yokocho (감술) a delightful shopping street lined with age-old businesses and named after the sweet, milky sake drink amazake; you can sample it at Futaba (후타바; 2-4-9 Nihonbashi-Ningyocho), along with various sweet and savoury eats made from tofu.
Also along here is colourful crafts shop Yuma (유마; 2-32-5 Nihonbashi-Ningyocho).
West across NIngyocho-dori from Amazake Yokocho, you'll easily spot Tamahide (다마히데; 1-17-1 Nihonbashi-Ningyocho) by the line of customers outside whaiting for a space inside the restaurant which has been serving up its since eggs and served over a bowl of rice) since) since 1760.
A few blocks northeast from Amazake Yokocho, facing a neighbouring park, is Brozer' s Hamburger (2-28-5 Nihonbashi-Ningyocho), one of Tokyo's best burger joints.
