The path leading from Kaminarimon Gate to Senso-ji Temple was lined with all sorts of small shops selling food and household goods. It was so congested that you could only slowly incline with the flow of people until you reached Senso-ji Temple, where the path finally opened up a bit.

From the softness of the linens to the quietness of the ventilation system, and the traceability of ingredients for every meal, every detail is meticulously crafted, without a trace of perfunctory work. After a full day of experience, lying in bed reflecting on all the details, I couldn't find a single fault.

[Fun] My child went to the Animate main store first. We spent more than two hours shopping for all kinds of animations, figurines, millet, etc. The surrounding dinners are also very cost-effective. For adults, you can go shopping in Tobu, Seibu and other shopping malls for a whole day. As long as you have enough energy, you can also go to Chinatown. This place is closer to the daily life of local people.
[Cost-effectiveness] Ikebukuro is very cost-effective. The Tokyu Hotel where I stayed is a chain and affordable. Ikebukuro has convenient transportation. It is very convenient to travel by rail transit. Combined with multi-day tickets, it will save a lot of transportation costs. It’s just that the subway station is too big, mixed with subways and trains. Please be sure to reserve time in advance to figure out the direction and train number. I bought the wrong ticket the first time. If you have the opportunity, you can go and see the urban rail transit.
The shopping price in Ikebukuro is also very affordable. In addition to Tobu and Seibu, there are many other stores.
[Scenery] The scenery of Ikebukuro is urban scenery. It is charming both during the day and at night. There are also internet-famous food restaurants in Ikebukuro, as well as various tourist attractions, such as Sunshine City, etc. I didn’t have the time to go there, but the online introductions say they are quite good.”Sunshine Sakae

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail and welcoming to travelers with warmth, it's no exaggeration to call it a shining pearl on the long journey. From the moment I entered the lobby, every detail revealed thoughtful refinement: the stone flooring had a non-slip, soft-polished finish, neither dazzling nor slippery; the warm tea served upon check-in was perfectly 42 degrees Celsius—not too hot, nor too cold. The bedding in the room had been adjusted dozens of times to achieve the perfect firmness, supporting my back comfortably; even the water pressure in the bathroom was perfectly calibrated. Both the facilities and the amenities were impeccable, with not a single careless oversight. It's a benchmark in the industry, undoubtedly the top choice for any stay, concealing exceptional quality and extraordinary elegance in every unseen detail.”Ueno Park

It transformed the journey's exhaustion into a therapeutic experience for both body and mind, making the most of the precious time. The pre-placed hot compress was at the perfect temperature; applying it to my aching calves slowly eased the muscle tension. The chilled lemonade, with its perfect sweet and sour taste, instantly soothed the heat of the climb. I tossed my grass-covered jacket aside, leaned against the window, and watched the rising sun paint the clouds orange-red, listening to the distant birdsong. Even the exhaustion from climbing the steps transformed into a soft, satisfying feeling of witnessing the sunrise. No need to rush to the next viewpoint, no need to hastily organize photos for social media. Time slowed down here, allowing every moment to flow with tranquility. That day, I sat by the window wrapped in a blanket for a long time, even the wind seemed to accompany me as I slowly savored the romance of the sunrise.”Meguro River

The styles are relatively simple, but they are all handmade in Japan and are still very popular! As for Okachimachi, it goes without saying.

When the traffic light turns green, pedestrians who were previously stationary on the sidewalks instantly begin to move from all directions, surging towards the center point, then immediately parting ways.

The dense crowds here create a particularly spectacular scene, attracting many tourists who come specifically to photograph this famous sight.

On my first trip to Tokyo, I chose the Shinjuku area for its convenient transportation.
It truly is a major transportation hub, with various routes crisscrossing and converging at this station. Shinjuku Station has over a dozen exits, and if you don't pay attention to your directions, it's easy to waste an extra ten minutes or more walking unnecessarily.
The crowds are terrifying. Even I, someone who's experienced Shanghai's weekday rush hour subway stations, was a bit shocked by the level of congestion at Shinjuku Station!
The bus stop for Haneda Airport is also nearby, making transportation very convenient, but… I couldn't handle the noise of Shinjuku.
At night, it's truly a dazzling display of neon lights, incredibly lively, with Kabukicho constantly filled with music and vibrant energy.
The surrounding shopping malls are also numerous, with Odakyu Department Store, Takashimaya, and LUMINE EST all within walking distance.
Therefore, for first-time visitors who want convenient transportation and enjoy a lively atmosphere, Shinjuku is the perfect choice. However, for me, that first time was also the last; I've never stayed in Shinjuku since.”Ginza
