Day 1 - Took an early morning flight ✈️ to Narita Airport, then bought Skyliner tickets to reach Nippori in 40 minutes (should've gone directly to Ueno actually). Switched metro lines 🚇 using Suica card to reach our hotel 🏨 Tokyo Bay Shiomi Prince Hotel. Booked Shibuya Sky - Shibuya Sky 360° Open-Air Observation Deck in advance for evening rooftop photos. The wind was so strong at night that wearing a down jacket didn't seem excessive! Shibuya was packed with young people - couldn't even get into any decent yakiniku restaurant [Cry] Day 2 - Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture took quite long for round trip, and there were way too many people taking photos 📷. We gave up on the Slam Dunk anime spot and found strolling by the seaside watching sunset much more relaxing 😌. Visited Akihabara in the evening but arrived too late to explore much~ Day 3 - Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo - The Making of Harry Potter was somewhat boring, though we took many photos... Tickets were in high demand - sold out when checked one week in advance, so my husband bought resale tickets. Accidentally ended up in Ikebukuro while taking metro at night, finally got 2-3 hours for shopping [Cute][Cute][Cute] (This is the proper way to experience Tokyo!!!) Day 4 - Tokyo Disneyland - Beauty and the Beast lived up to its Top 1 popularity, with 145 minutes wait time [Cry]. But the evening fireworks 🎆 were disappointing 😞 - lasted only 5 minutes, gone just as we got ready to take photos. Day 5 - Tokyo National Museum happened to be open on Monday 🈺️, located in Ueno Park which was on our way to airport... The museum isn't very large, mainly divided into Honkan (Main Gallery), Toyokan (Asian Gallery), Heiseikan and Horyuji Treasure Gallery - can be fully explored in 3 hours. Overall, Kamakura was the highlight with perfect weather allowing us to see Mount Fuji 🗻 wearing its scarf-like clouds in the distance.

如果要前往豪德寺，千万不要错过招财猫列车！提前在Google搜索“幸福の招き猫電車”，官网上会显示一周内的列车时刻表。在东急世田谷站，每小时大约只有1到2班列车。从其他地方转车到这个车站虽然有标示路线，但可能会稍显迂回，因此建议提前规划好路线。列车车头有招财猫的图案，车内的拉环设计成猫爪，非常可爱！而且这还是东京都内仅有的两条路面电车之一，绝对值得体验☺️ 豪德寺的招福猫举的是右手，与一般商店里举左手拿金币的招财猫不同。寺内随处可见招福猫的身影，转过一个角落，就能看到满满的招福猫，这是大家还愿后留下的。继续往前走，会看到招福猫的贩卖处，每人限购一只。如果想买多只，记得带家人一起排队哦，结账时工作人员会数人数。 离开寺庙后，可以往商店街方向走。在路上会遇到一家招福猫主题甜点店“RARASAND ララサンド”，店里的招福猫造型甜点夹心满满，非常美味😋

Tsukiji Market is a public wholesale market located in Tokyo, Japan. It handles a large amount of seafood, fruits and vegetables every day. It was once the fish market with the largest seafood processing volume in Japan. Tsukiji Market is divided into the inner market and the outer market. In October 2018, the inner market was officially moved to Toyosu, and the outer market remained in its original location. Therefore, most of the stores in the outer market are still there, and Tsukiji Market is still a famous seafood market in Tokyo. Transportation strategy: Take the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line to "Tsukiji Station" Exit 1 or 2, and walk for 1 minute to reach the Central Market intersection, where you will see the entrance sign of Tsukiji Outer Market. Take the Toei Oedo Line to "E18 Tsukiji Market Station", turn right at Exit A1 and walk for about 1 minute to reach Tsukiji Outer Market, which is extremely convenient for transportation. You must arrange your trip to Tsukiji Market early in the morning, preferably before 9 o'clock. If you come late, you will have to queue up at almost every stall. In addition to fresh sushi and seafood, there are also well-known tamagoyaki, gyudon, fried pork cutlet rice and other delicacies. In fact, after a visit, I found that one stomach is not enough. Several famous stores, such as: Kitsuneya Fox House-selling beef rice and beef offal rice, the famous Fox House, I heard that the mother-in-law is very fierce and doesn't like foreigners, but the scene is almost all foreigners, and the portion is quite large. The beef rice is sweet and the beef offal rice is salty. I found that it might be too busy, causing the waiters to almost have no expression. Marutake Tamagoyaki-There are more than 10 tamagoyaki restaurants, each of which is delicious. The Kanto flavor is sweet, and it is cheap. In fact, you can eat at any one. Onigiriya Marutoyo-This store has been on the TV big eater, selling dozens of rice balls, lined up like I have a selective disorder. After choosing and choosing, I finally chose the fried shrimp rice ball. The store is doing very well and popular products are often sold out. In fact, rice balls only have simple white rice and sweet soy sauce, and the price is around 200 yen, which is very convenient for office workers who are in a hurry. Other places like Tsukiji Koutou (Uogashi Senryo), Tsukiji Sushi Fresh Sohonten, and some unnamed stores that don't even have a name, have super large prawns, raw oysters, large scallops, and even king crab legs. If you don't dare to eat raw food, there are also many barbecued and cooked food to choose from. Tsukiji Market has clear prices, and Japanese people don't bargain anymore. Everyone can choose the price they can accept. Compared with the new Toyosu Market, I still prefer the old and dirty Tsukiji Market, and it is closer to the city center and has convenient transportation. I recommend it to everyone.

Shibuya Crossing—it’s as chaotic and cool as you’d imagine, with people flowing from every direction. Shibuya Sky — it was such a peaceful vibe compared to the usual Tokyo buzz. The city looked so fresh and calm from above, and the morning light gave everything a soft glow. Not too crowded, so I had time to really take in the 360° view. A perfect way to start the day—watching Tokyo slowly come alive from the top! Tokyo Tower—found a great spot nearby where you can get that postcard-perfect angle of the tower rising above the cityscape. TeamLab Planets —honestly, it felt like walking through a dream—interactive lights, mirrors, and water made it such a magical experience. #tokyospots

I especially want this secret!! It's apparently priced at 60,000 yen on a Chinese website, but it's not on Mercari... Please let me know if you know anything about it 🥺🥺 #labubu #lovebu

Tokyo’s neon buzz and iconic spots like Shibuya Crossing are great, but if you’ve already snapped that selfie or want to feel like a local, it’s time to dive deeper. We scoured seasoned Tokyo travelers for real tips and mixed in some insider know-how to bring you seven experiences that’ll make you feel like you’re living the Tokyo life. From serene mornings to high-rise cocktails, here’s how to do Tokyo like you belong there. 1️⃣ Hunt Treasures at Oedo Antique Market Many travelers are buzzing about the Oedo Antique Market at Tokyo International Forum; it’s a goldmine for unique finds—think vintage kimonos, woodblock prints, and quirky pottery at bargain prices. Held twice a month (check schedules online), it’s where locals and savvy travelers dig for treasures, some one-of-a-kind memories to take home. Arrive early for the best picks, and bring cash for small vendors. ➜ Pro tip: Pair it with a stroll through nearby Yurakucho for a taste of authentic street food. 2️⃣ Sip Cocktails in a Shinjuku High-Rise Bar Travelers can’t stop talking about Tokyo’s high-rise bars, and for good reason. Perched in skyscrapers like Park Hyatt’s New York Bar (yes, from Lost in Translation), you’ll sip whisky while the city’s lights stretch endlessly below, like stars pulled to earth. Locals and expats love spots like Bar Ben Fiddich for its herbal cocktails or BrewDog Roppongi for craft beer. Go at night, dress sharp (no shorts!), and soak in urban poetry. ➜ Pro tip: Book a spot in advance for popular bars to avoid disappointment. 3️⃣ Picnic Like a Local at Shinjuku Gyoen Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden is a green oasis amid Tokyo’s chaos, and travelers rave about sprawling on the grass for a picnic. Grab snacks from a nearby conbini (7-Eleven’s onigiri is a winner) and join locals chilling under cherry blossoms or autumn leaves. It’s serene, affordable, and perfect for people-watching. Visit in the morning for quieter vibes. ➜ Fun fact: This garden was once a feudal lord’s mansion in the Edo era. 4️⃣ Catch a Sumo Match and Cheer Like a Pro Nothing screams “Japan” like sumo wrestling, and catching a match at Ryogoku Kokugikan is a thrill. Travelers rave about the electric atmosphere—think passionate fans and wrestlers slamming into each other like human bulldozers. Tickets go on sale about a month in advance (e.g., December 10 for January tournaments), but they sell out fast on PIA’s website, so set a reminder and be ready to refresh like your life depends on it. Third-party resellers charge a premium but can save the day for last-minute planners. ➜ Pro tip: Grab a bowl of chanko nabe (sumo wrestler stew) nearby to complete the vibe. 5️⃣ Wander Senso-ji at Dawn Senso-ji in Asakusa is Tokyo’s oldest temple, but it’s swamped by tourists by midday. Pro-travelers swear by visiting at dawn (thank you, jet lag!) for a magical, crowd-free experience. Walk through the Kaminarimon Gate as the sun rises, snap photos of the pagoda, and feel the spiritual calm. The Nakamise shops won’t be open yet, but the quiet is worth it. ➜ Pro tip: Grab a coffee at a nearby kissaten (retro cafe) to keep the morning chill. 6️⃣ Stroll Shimokitazawa’s Cool Streets Shimokitazawa is Tokyo’s hipster haven, and visitors love its laid-back vibe. Wander narrow streets packed with vintage shops, cozy cafes, and record stores. Start at Shirohige’s Totoro Cream Puff Factory (yes, it’s Ghibli-themed!), grab coffee at Bonus Track business park, then shop till you drop. It’s less touristy than Shibuya but just as lively. ➜ Pro tip: Visit in the late afternoon for peak local energy without the crowds 7️⃣ Cruise the Shuto Expressway at Night For adrenaline junkies and pop culture enthusiasts, consider renting a sports car (check providers like Omoshiro Rentcar) and taking a night drive on the Shuto Expressway. It’s like living in a Tokyo Drift fantasy, weaving through Tokyo’s neon-lit infrastructure. The overpasses and underground tunnels are a sight in themselves. Not a driver? Walk Shinjuku or Shibuya’s elevated walkways to marvel at the city’s dense, futuristic layout. ➜ Pro tip: Stick to speed limits—Tokyo’s traffic cams are no joke. These experiences are your ticket to Tokyo’s soul, far beyond the tourist traps.

If you’re hunting for the perfect Tokyo Tower photo, don’t just go straight under it — explore the nearby side streets and parks like Shiba Park area! From there, you’ll get a clear, iconic view of the tower with fewer crowds and a nice mix of nature and city vibes in your frame. I literally walked all around the nearby sidewalks and crosswalks just to find the best angle of Tokyo Tower 😂 And honestly, it was worth it! Some of the random street corners actually gave me the prettiest shots. #summervacay #thingstodo #travel #japan

Day 1: Boarded the flight at 9:00 AM and arrived at Narita Airport in the afternoon. Took the Skyliner to Ueno Station, then transferred to another train to reach Ningyocho. After an 8-10 minute walk, arrived at the hotel (Minn). Later, headed to Ginza Station for some sightseeing and met a friend at a nearby izakaya for dinner. Returned to the hotel after dinner, marking the end of the first day. Day 2: Had breakfast at a local café at 11:00 AM, then took the Toei Shinjuku Line for station-hopping. Visited Meiji Shrine for a prayer, explored Harajuku and Takeshita Street in Shinjuku, and stopped by Shin-Okubo Korean Town. Ended the day with dinner at an izakaya near Kabukicho. Day 3: Woke up at 6:00 AM and had a light breakfast at the hotel. Took a bus from Shinjuku Bus Terminal to Fuji-Q Highland at Lake Kawaguchi and spent the entire day at the amusement park. On the way back, stopped by Shibuya to see the bustling scramble crossing and visited several shopping malls. Enjoyed a delicious dinner at one of the mall restaurants. Day 4: Left the hotel at noon and took the Asakusa Line to Asakusa Station. Explored the streets around Kaminarimon and Sensoji Temple, and visited a nearby area reminiscent of Hong Kong's Shanghai Street to browse kitchenware. Found an excellent Japanese restaurant with incredibly fresh and affordable medium-fat tuna. In the evening, met a friend near Nihonbashi for an all-you-can-drink dinner, which was delightful. Before dinner, shopped at various malls in Nihonbashi. Day 5: Checked out of the hotel at 10:00 AM and brought luggage to Tokyo Station. Stored it in the nearest NEX locker, located two levels down from the JR South Exit. Note: The lockers near Ichiban-gai are often crowded, so finding a spot might be difficult. Since the flight was at 1:33 PM, spent some time exploring and had lunch nearby. Most restaurants opened between 11:00 AM and 12:00 PM, and there were queues outside every place, likely due to it being Sunday. Took the NEX to the airport at 1:33 PM. After checking in, discovered that the airport restaurants were excellent. Had chicken broth ramen, a beef cutlet set, and crab tempura for lunch, which were outstanding and perfectly concluded the trip.

The restaurant features a transparent meat-cutting station where each piece of beef is labeled with its specific serial number. Additionally, the restaurant offers a Yakiniku Shinkansen smart delivery system 🚆 that delivers dishes directly to your table. 🌟 Premium Set Menu - 120 Minutes 90% of the dishes can be ordered via QR code, ensuring quick service with no missed orders. The sushi I recommend is the Seared Wagyu Sukiyaki Sushi 🍣. Skip other sushi options and focus on the yakiniku! Each table is served an appetizer without needing to order, which includes three seasonal sashimi options: salmon, sweet shrimp, and octopus 🐙. The first round is quite good, but the salmon tends to get fattier as the meal progresses, which is great for those who enjoy the belly cut. As for Japanese Black Wagyu 🐮, there are 15 cuts available, including thinly seared ribeye, short ribs, and chuck. There are also 6-7 types of sauces to choose from. The marbling of the Wagyu is very distinct, far superior to regular American or Australian beef. The rich aroma and flavor of the beef explode in your mouth 🤤. The beef tongue is also highly recommended, available in thick or thin slices. Personally, I prefer the thick cut for its chewy and springy texture. Outside, there are two self-service bars. One is a beverage bar, dessert counter, and sauce station. I appreciate that, in addition to cold brew tea and bottled sodas, they also offer hot drinks. The dessert counter clearly labels the production time 👍🏻, so you don’t have to worry about items sitting out for too long. The other bar near the cashier features an ice cream freezer and hot fried items, such as fried chicken, onion rings, and chicken wings. If you’re still hungry, there are rice, noodles, and soup options 😂. You can even make your own minced meat rice, and the onsen eggs are unlimited as well.

More seafood than rice, Kaisendon piled up like Mt. Fuji 江戸富士 If you're looking for a proper Kaisendon in Tokyo, don't hesitate and go to 江戸富士 (Edo Fuji)! This place gives you an overwhelming sense of satisfaction that will make you think, "I won't think about sashimi for months" after eating the generous portions. After receiving a bowl of rice topped with fresh seafood, you'll think, "Isn't this almost Mt. Fuji?"🤤 A place where you can have the novel experience of having more sashimi than rice✨ 🕰 Short business hours, so a more special lunch Edo Fuji is only open for lunch ✔ Business hours: Mon-Fri 11:30~14:00 Sat 12:00~14:00 (Closed on Sundays) ✔ Early closing when ingredients run out Edo Fuji is a small shop that only opens for lunch, so there's always a wait. I arrived around 12:30 on a weekday, and there were about 3 groups waiting in front of me, so I waited for about 30 minutes before I could enter. But something that was a little unusual was that there were customers who had finished eating and leaving, but they didn’t call the waiting team right away. Just in case, the person in front of me opened the door and went in, and there was an empty seat inside the store, so they only guided me there saying “Irasshaimase~”. Maybe… ✔ The store is small, and there’s only one chef and one grandmother who’s in charge of the restaurant, so it’s probably busy! ✔ There’s a waiting area inside the store, but if there’s no one, it might look like there’s no waiting! If you don’t know this and just wait outside, customers might not come in, so it’s better to wait a little and open the store door slightly and ask the staff about the waiting situation! I went at 11:30 on another Monday, but all the customers who came earlier had already gone in… It took 40~50 minutes for the entire table to go around once to get in 🥺 It might be hard to wait, ‼️ but once you take a bite, it's so delicious that you'll feel like the waiting time was worth it. 🍣 Edofuji's menu The menu here is a way to add your desired ingredients to the basic kaisendon. 🙌Basic kaisendon (上バラ海鮮丼) - 2,500 yen This is a way to add your desired ingredients to the basic kaisendon! In other words, the basic donburi is filling enough, but you can add more ingredients according to your taste. ✔️Basic donburi with fresh sashimi. ✔️Tuna, yellowtail, shrimp, sea bream, eel, squid, oyster, etc., mainly seasonal fish You can add your desired ikura (salmon roe) or uni (sea urchin roe) on top of this. ✨Add Ikura (いくらのせ海鮮丼) → 3,900 yen ✨ Add Uni (うにのせ海鮮丼) – 5,900 yen Tuna (Magurotoro) → Soft, melting fat, savory flavor Uni (Sea urchin roe) → Fresh ocean flavor, sweetness that melts in your mouth Ikura (Salmon roe) → A bursting texture and deep savory flavor 🔥 Even those who hate Ikura and Uni will fall in love with ‘Edo Fuji’ Ikura and Uni! To be honest, I didn’t really like Ikura and Uni. Ikura has a bursting texture and salty taste when you eat it, and Uni has a strong ocean flavor and fishy taste… That’s why I didn’t really add Ikura or Uni when I ate sushi, ‼️My thoughts changed after eating it here. ✔️ Ikura is fresh and not salty, so the savory flavor is a work of art! ✔ The uni is not fishy at all and the soft and rich flavor is really amazing... It melts in your mouth the moment you put it in. Especially if you order the uni kaisendon 🥺 It's so generously topped with uni that you can eat until you're full! Even if you don't like uni that much, this is a flavor worth trying. You might change your mind like me. Honestly, if you eat this, you won't think about raw fish for months..! 🥣 Hidden delicacy - limited quantity sashimi jike (魚汁) The kaisendon is great, but the broth is something you can't miss here! That's right, limited quantity sashimi jike (魚汁, fish stock). It has large pieces of fish, and with one sip, the rich and deep savory flavor really comes up. This isn't just a soup, it's a soup full of seafood flavor, so it's even more special! ✔️ If you order Kaisendon, it's provided as a basic service! ✔️ It's limited quantity, so if you go late, it might run out🥲 ✔ A soup dish full of rich savory flavor + yuzu scent ✔️ A perfect combination when you eat a sip of soup and a sip of Kaisendon! 🔥 Tips for visiting Edo Fuji ✔ Be sure to arrive before opening → If you arrive around 11:10, you can reduce the waiting time. ✔ Cash payment only → They don't accept cards, so prepare Japanese yen! ✔ Nearby Akihabara, sightseeing locations from the anime "Suzume no Kyoukai" (Hijiribashi) Once you've experienced this much Edo Fuji Kaisendon, you might not be satisfied with Kaisendon anywhere else. If you want a real, proper Kaisendon, definitely stop by. 🍣✨ 📍 2 Chome-7-7 Yushima, Bunkyo City, Tokyo 113-0034 🚃 9 min walk from JR Chuo Line Ochanomizu Station ⏰ Mon-Fri 11:30-14:00 / Sat 12:00-14:00 (Closed on Sundays) 💰 Cash payment #Tokyo travel #Edo Fuji #Tokyo Edo Fuji #Edo Fuji Kaisendon #Tokyo restaurants #Japan travel #Tokyo travel #Tokyo seafood restaurants #Akihabara restaurants #Kaisendon #Uni #Ikura #Tokyo places to visit #Japan places to visit #Japanese local restaurants #Japanese seafood #Japanese restaurant recommendations #Tokyo hidden restaurants #Raw fish rice bowl #Restaurants #Restaurant recommendations #Tokyo restaurant recommendations #Suzume no Mystery Crackdown #Akihabara #Hijiribashi

Here is my #favouriteitinerary which I created during my visit to DisneyLand , Tokyo I arrived early to buy disney premier pass to book slot for the popular beauty and the beast ride.

They interact nicely with guests. If you are a stitch fan like me , don’t forget to go see stitch at Stitch’s Encounter.

3 days of Tokyo, a lovely city with 15 locations The capital of Japan that combines classic and chic In one trip, this is the right summer to go On this trip, we went to many areas, both Shibamata It's like going back to the Showa era. Then we went to Shibuya The next morning, we went to Asakusa, a green area It's on the waterfront for taking beautiful pictures. Then we went to Harajuku Anyone who loves shopping will definitely love this area. It's cute Then we went to Shinjuku in the evening. There are so many cool photo spots On the third morning, we traveled to the romantic tram It's full of many beautiful roses that you have to see Finally, we went to Koenji, an area that teenagers definitely love Day 1 01 Sunshine City Prince Hotel Our accommodation on this trip was convenient and close to Ikebukuro Station. It was very convenient to travel anywhere. The room was spacious, clean, and smelled good. It had a bathroom and shower inside. Most importantly, it is located next to Sunshine City shopping mall, and it has everything we need. 02 Benitsuru Pancake Asakusa The shop opens from 10:00-16:30, but reservations start at 8:00. I recommend going before 8:00 because the queue fills up very quickly. This is the most delicious pancake shop in my life. The menu item that is worth trying is Bacon & Egg, and I must say that it melts in your mouth. 03 I’m donut A donut shop that I can only describe in one word…melts in your mouth, so awesome. This is a donut shop that is truly worth it. Most importantly, the queue is very long, and it sells out very quickly. There are many flavors. I guarantee that anyone who tries it will love it just like I did. 04 Sunshine Aquarium An aquarium located on the rooftop of the World Import Mart building in Sunshine City in Ikebukuro. 05 Shibuya The Shibuya Sky building is a new landmark that you must visit. The photo corner is very cute. Plus, it costs only 2,000 yen per person. You can see a beautiful 360-degree view of the entire city of Tokyo. I give this angle to everyone. It is very beautiful, but you have to use your phone to take the picture. There will be a photographer here to take the picture for you. We can go down and choose the picture ourselves. The price is not expensive. 06 Dogen For dinner, we recommend this restaurant. When we were hungry, we walked to a secret yakiniku restaurant. There were only Japanese people eating there. It was very good. The price was not expensive, but the quality was smooth and delicious. You have to wait in line for this restaurant. Day 2 07 Shibamata Experience the retro Tokyo atmosphere.

It's really worth coming to see the beauty here. 11 Harajuku This area is an area that tourists like us must not miss. 12 Shinjuku We walked leisurely until we arrived at this area, Shinjuku. You must come across Cross Shinjuku Vision, an advertisement billboard that was launched in 2021 and is considered one of the first to present 3D images on a large curved screen realistically. I guarantee that you will fall in love with its cuteness for sure.

Japanese people love to walk around this area. Finally, Tokyo... of Japan is waiting for everyone. . . Me...bangs #Tokyo #TravelJapan #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck

Took a peaceful stroll through Meiji Jingu and honestly, it didn’t feel like Tokyo at all. Super quiet, lots of trees, and those big torii gates are so cool. Checked out the shrine, saw people writing their wishes on the wooden plaques. A nice little escape from the busy city life. Would definitely go back just for the calm vibes. ⛩️🍃 A perfect spot to slow down and soak in some culture and quiet. 🍃✨ #summervacay #travel #thingstodo #tokyo

Look at this, dears who are traveling to Tokyo! We found a magical hotel, right next to Sensoji Temple, just a 3-minute walk away🚶♀️ There are countless delicious foods around, izakayas and snack stalls to choose from, Don Quixote and Uniqlo are very close, and there is also an OK supermarket that locals love to visit, the prices are very affordable, and it is very convenient to buy snacks and drinks! The hotel facilities are super new, which is really rare in Japan✨ I love the ladies' exclusive hot springs, and it is super safe to enter with a password~ The black hot springs are super comfortable to soak in, and you can also go to the comic reading room to relax after the soak. Free popsicles and Yakult are free to eat. This treatment is too considerate! The triple room we stayed in on the first night was super spacious, with two single beds and a double bed, which was more than enough for 2 adults, 2 children and one adult! There are so many check-in shops around, and it is very convenient to rent a kimono to take beautiful photos. On the last night, I upgraded to a room with a view of the Tokyo Skytree and Sensoji Temple. I could enjoy the beautiful scenery while lying on the bed. The pepper aromatherapy in the room is super healing, and my mother can't put it down! Come to Tokyo and stay here, eat, drink and have fun in one stop. I will stay here next time! 💖#TokyoCost-EffectiveHotel

Destinations – A balanced city trip through Shibuya, Asakusa, Ueno, and Tsukiji Tokyo turned out to be softer and more multidimensional than I had imagined. Despite the short 4-day, 3-night itinerary, I managed to experience the diverse faces of Tokyo without feeling rushed or sluggish. ⸻ 📍Day 1 – First Greetings with Tokyo in Shibuya After arriving at Haneda Airport, I took the airport limousine bus to my accommodation near Shibuya Station. Dropping off my luggage, the first destination was the iconic Shibuya Scramble Crossing. Witnessing the bustling crowds crossing paths made me truly feel that I had arrived in Tokyo. I highly recommend visiting the Shibuya Sky Observatory. If you go around sunset, you’ll be treated to a breathtaking view of Tokyo Tower, Skytree, and even Mount Fuji all at once. For dinner, I wrapped up the day lightly with a bowl of yuzu-flavored shoyu ramen at Afuri, a nearby ramen shop. ⸻ 📍Day 2 – Tradition Meets Modernity in Asakusa & Ueno The second day began with a visit to Asakusa’s Sensoji Temple. Passing through the grand **Kaminarimon (Thunder Gate)** leads you to Nakamise Street, lined with shops selling traditional Japanese snacks and souvenirs. You can even try on a kimono for a great photo opportunity. A short walk away is Ueno Park, which is a must-visit. If you have time, you can explore Ueno Zoo or the Tokyo National Museum. During the autumn foliage or cherry blossom season, a simple stroll through the park is more than satisfying. Dinner was a casual snack tour at Ueno’s Ameyoko Market. I recommend trying takoyaki, melon bread, and matcha gelato—all delicious options. ⸻ 📍Day 3 – Tsukiji Morning Market & Ginza Shopping Early in the morning, I headed to Tsukiji Outer Market. The market was bustling with stalls offering tuna sushi, tamagoyaki skewers, grilled squid, and other seafood snacks. While the famous tuna auction is no longer held here, the lively atmosphere and food remain vibrant. Afterward, I walked to Ginza for some shopping and café time. I leisurely browsed through the Ginza Uniqlo flagship store, Tokyu Hands, and Tsutaya Bookstore. For coffee, I recommend Blue Bottle Coffee Ginza—both the ambiance and taste were excellent. ⸻ 📍Day 4 – Wrapping Up and Heading Home With my flight scheduled for the afternoon, I spent the morning shopping at nearby drugstores like Don Quijote and Matsumotokiyoshi. Returning the SUICA transportation card and organizing tax refund documents in advance allowed for a smooth trip to the airport. ⸻ ✈️ Final Thoughts Though 4 days and 3 nights is a short time, it was enough to deeply experience the essence of Tokyo. Each day felt like exploring a city with a different personality, and I believe that even if I revisit the same places, they would feel entirely new. For first-time visitors to Tokyo, the Shibuya-Asakusa-Ueno-Tsukiji-Ginza route is a choice you won’t regret.
