I was too busy
with my studies
that I haven’t have the time to document the places that I’ve been to. Speaking of busy, let me tour you to the busiest streets of Tokyo which are all interesting as to sight seeing
, shopping
, dining
or partying
. Come and walk with me on my top five wonderful streets of Tokyo
.
Odaiba
Odaiba is a large artificial island in Tokyo Bay where you can see the Rainbow Bridge
from central Tokyo. It is famous for its seafood restaurants and kids might also want to visit the giant robot, Gundam. Odaiba for me is best at night with its sparkling lights and nice ambiance of the seashore.
As for the 2020 Summer Olympics, Odaiba is one of the proposed venue locations for beach volleyball at Shiokaze Park, triathlon and marathon swimming at Odaiba Marine Park, and gymnastics at a new gymnastics venue.
This is me with the Rainbow Bridge Background and Gundam! J
Shinjuku
Known for its shopping centers, Shinjuku houses the busiest train station in the world (3.64 million people per day in 2007 as per Guinness World Records). You can also find the Tokyo Metropolitan Building, a tower of 48 stories where you could see the entire city of Tokyo from the top for FREE! Tourists usually go here although Tokyo Tower and Tokyo Skytree are also worth visiting for sight seeing.
These are pictures taken near Shinjuku station and at Tokyo Metropolitan Building.
Tokyo Station
The Tokyo station is the main intercity rail terminal in Tokyo. It is considered the busiest station in Japan in terms of number of trains per day. This place is worth visiting as it speaks so much about Tokyo’s history.
And here I am again, photo bumming at the station with friends!
Shibuya
I once talked about Shibuya on my previous blog as a shopping district and some historical places such as Hachiko Statue in memory of the faithful dog waiting for his master at the station. The movie TheFast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift has some scenes taken at this street specifically the famous Scramble Crossing.
Here is a photo of me with the busy people of Tokyo shopping.
Nakano Street
Of course, Nakano would always be on my list at it serves as my home here in Tokyo. And just today Nakano gave me my first snow experience! Come and visit us here in Nakano and make sure to stay at our guesthouse! We will be happy to serve you.
Until next time everyone!
From Tokyo with Love
