Uguisudani/Iriya is the area around JR Uguisudani Station and Iriya Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line in Taito ward, where the ward's tourism site lists Iriya Kishimojin (Shingen-ji) as the nearby sight.
Taito ward's official tourism site gives Iriya Kishimojin as about 5 minutes on foot from the south exit of JR Uguisudani Station and about 1 minute from exit 2 of Iriya Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line.
The ward's tourism site introduces Iriya Kishimojin (Shingen-ji) as the sightseeing spot close to Uguisudani and Iriya stations. Listings for Uguisudani/Iriya, when there are some, will be shown right here. For now the Ueno/Asakusa/Nippori area page carries that area's listings, with the Ueno / Okachimachi / Yushima page giving the district view.
Taito ward's designated touting zones, as the Metropolitan Police give them, are blocks such as Ueno and Nishi-Asakusa; Uguisudani and Iriya are not among them (31 March 2016).
Uguisudani/Iriya is generally fine for a night out. The main risk is bottakuri, a padded bill at the end. Stick to venues that post their prices, skip street touts steering you into ‘free’ bars, and confirm the set fee plus any nomination or bottle charges before you order.
Payment methods vary by venue. Check the listing and confirm with the venue before booking.
