This museum was amazing. I would be giving it 5 stars but it is not ideal for the last minute student who shows up to things hoping for the best. On a Saturday, you must arrive close to opening time...
The view is well and all, and kind of entertaining. You can see if you can point stuff out and a few of the windows number the "sights." In the West Tower (the one that's open later) there's...
This is absolutely awesome. It's a giant ferris wheel that gives you a great view of Tokyo. You can even see the giant gundam that was just erected in Odaiba. It's a very nice way to end a day of shop...
I could probably be medically diagnosed with an addiction to UFO catchers, and I gotta say this game centre has to be the best of its kind in Shibuya. The games here are probably the least rigged and ...
Parase is a fairly typical, karaoke-kan - private boxes with booth seats around a large table, large TV, and speakers. That's about it. No "Lost in Translation" style windows, unfortunately....
This is a fun arcade in the middle of Sunshine Street in Ikebukuro. If you look at the picture for this entry, you'll see that there is a sign for Cinema Sunshine above the Adores logo. My friends and...
this place was very fun. i guess it may be for children and the younger crowd to have fun moving around in the class, hopping into fire engines and old crickety boats, wading through sand and sliding ...
This was one of the best things I've done since I've been in Tokyo. I was lucky enough to get an unreserved ticket to go to one day of the sumo tournament. For 2100Y I had an all-day pass and was able...
Like others Game Arcades. A huge place with a lot of Arcades, Crane Machines, Game Simulators and a lot of people.
This one is specially known among the otakus because is in the heart of Akihabara, a...
Museums, Theaters, Concert Venues, Art Galleries ( Shibuya )
Bunkamura usually has some kind of interesting art exhibition going on, one of the times I went, it was a Russian Constructivist Painter show, which was interesting. Due to the gallery space's somewh...
I went here in the day in the middle of the summer. From the highest observation deck in Japan, on a humid day, I couldn't see very far. I could however learn about the different nearby rooftops of ...
Fun, a good mix of nationals, british workers and temporary visitors, sweet Connie runs the bar, all ignore the no dancing sign, the crowd makes the night. Don't choose a good song, or it will get hij...
Like most pachinko places, Esupasu is a large pachinko parlor that is full of people addicted to pachinko. This is a 5 story pachinko parlor where the lower 3 floor are all jammed packed with pachinko...
Visiting the observation deck of a hospital just for kicks strikes me as rather odd, but there are a couple of good reasons to visit St. Luke's if you're in the Tsukiji area. The observation deck is ...
Science is fun because it explains mysteries, and museums that let children and adults explore in life's curiosities are a blast. The Sony ExploraScience museum is one of those interesting museums ful...
I went to the National Noh Theatre to see Theatre Project Si's production of Hamlet. The theatre was a little hard to find but I luckily brought a map. I ended up taking the new Fukutoshin Line to K...
This arcade is spread out over a single floor, but despite that it is smaller than some of its peers, it has all the same games. They have a large medal game and slot machine section that takes up a l...
Life gives you incomprehensible experiences from time to time. That's why we have cutesy little sayings and adages to deal with them. Pachinko is one of those incomprehensible experiences. Walking int...
Big Apple houses four floors of glorious, flashy, noisy pachinko machines. Actually, the top floor has Las Vegas style slot machines as well. Designed for the serious pachinko player, Big Apple has ev...
