Come on, the charm of Tokyo will definitely make you excited! 😍🚶♀️ Morning: Koishikawa Korakuen 🌳Koishikawa Korakuen is one of the oldest gardens in Tokyo. It was built in 1629 by Tokugawa Yorifusa, the first lord of the Mito Tokugawa family, and later improved by the second lord Mitsukuni. This Japanese garden is famous for its "wandering" design, which incorporates Chinese garden elements. Lakes, arch bridges, and teahouses are dotted throughout. It has different styles in each season, and the cherry blossoms in spring and maples in autumn are particularly charming! 🍁Check-in spot: The red arch bridge "Tsutenkyo" by the large spring water lake in the park is a great photo spot, with the modern skyline of Tokyo Dome in the background, which is super cute! 📸Transportation: Take the Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line or Namboku Line to Korakuen Station and walk for about 5 minutes to arrive. 🚇 Noon: Sangenjaya 🍵Sangenjaya, referred to as "Sancha", is the representative of Tokyo's downtown style! This area is named after three teahouses in the Edo period and is now a gathering place for literary youths and locals. There are many retro shops, cafes, izakayas, and surprise shops hidden in the alleys, full of life everywhere! 😎Check-in spot: The "Triangle Zone" of Sangenjaya, neon signs and street graffiti are must-take photos on Instagram! Don’t forget to capture the retro atmosphere outside the “Echo” theater! 🎭Transportation: Take the subway from Koishikawa Korakuen to "Ikebukuro Station", transfer to the Tokyu Denentoshi Line and take about 20 minutes to "Sangenjaya Station", where you will arrive right after you get off! 🚆 Lunch recommendation: Try the local "レーは饮み物." (Curry is a drink), the super rich Japanese curry will keep you eating! 🍛 Afternoon: Tokyo Saryo 🍵Located near Sangenjaya, Tokyo Saryo is Japan's first teahouse specializing in hand-brewed tea. It opened in 2017 and perfectly combines traditional tea ceremony with modern aesthetics! There are no complicated rituals here, only the pure fragrance of tea and Zen.

It was part of the Olympic Village in 1964 and is now a popular place for citizens to relax! Enjoy the cherry blossoms in spring and the ginkgo trees in autumn. This place is always full of laughter and vitality. The Meiji Shrine next to it adds to the sacred historical atmosphere! 🌞Check-in spot: The lawn in the center of the park. When the sun shines at dusk, take a backlit portrait, it’s so romantic!
