Yanaka is famous for having traditional Japanese streets, shops, temples and buildings.
The brown ball in the picture on the left is called 'sugi dama' or 'Sakabayashi.'
Sugitama is used to inform people that new sake has been made.
A sugitama is made from fresh pine leaves, and as the sugitama dries and changes color, it lets people know how much the sake has been matured.
