  • Tokyo Midtown

  • Shopping Malls, Landmarks & Historical Places, Architecture ( Roppongi )
  • Adore this place. Can be perceived as a bit pretentious at first, but you can do all from shopping, have a glass of wine, indulge with the various chocolatiers, and great dinners at Tokyo Midtown. Cla...
  • Tsukiji Fish Market

  • Landmarks & Historical Places ( Tsukiji )
  • Due to the inability of drunken foreigners to STOP LICKING THE TUNA the entire fish market has been redesigned. It is now much harder to see the market as it used to operate. Most people forget when...
  • Roppongi Hills

  • Shopping Malls, Landmarks & Historical Places, Architecture ( Roppongi )
  • Despite the giant maze that is Roppongi Hills, it's a great shopping area (though Tokyo doesn't seem to have a shortage on them.) It tries to give off a ritzy atmosphere, but in general it just feels...
  • The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Buildi...

  • Night View Spots, Landmarks & Historical Places, Architecture ( Shinjuku )
  • 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...
  • Omoide Yokocho: Shinjuku

  • Yakitori, Landmarks & Historical Places ( Shinjuku )
  • Crammed one on top of the other, the little local places serving everyone's favorite grilled meat on a stick will make you feel like you've stepped out of modern Tokyo and into some mythical parallel ...
  • National Diet Building

  • Landmarks & Historical Places ( Tameikesanno )
  • An architecturally curious building, it is the site of some serious government head-scratching. Hey, at least they don't have all-out fist fights here like they do in some countries. I would suggest...
  • Omotesando Hills

  • Shopping Malls, Landmarks & Historical Places, Architecture ( Harajuku )
  • Very luxurious. Shopping, fashion, night life... the same basic ingredients for any popular spot in Tokyo. But this one is special because all the stuff is really expensive. Trust me. That makes i...
  • Aqua City Odaiba & Mediage

  • Shopping Malls, Landmarks & Historical Places ( Odaiba )
  • I went here on a day trip from Asakusa. We took one of the fairies to go and see the bridges and this was our last stop. It's a nice place to end the day visiting the shrines in old Tokyo and visit ...
  • Tokyo Stock Market

  • Landmarks & Historical Places ( Nihombashi )
  • If you're expecting to see a re-enactment of the NYSE in the Pacific, keep looking. Here, despite market volatility, people are still polite to one another. The increasing use of technology in tradi...

  • St.Mary's Cathedral

  • Churches-Catholic, Landmarks & Historical Places, Architecture ( Waseda )
  • While I'm all about checking out churches and religious sites in other countries, this one was kinda over my head. I mean, I can appreciate the beauty and architectural ingenuity from the outside. B...
  • Hachiko Statue

  • Landmarks & Historical Places ( Shibuya )
  • The statue isn't all that spectacular, but the thought and heart behind the statue is what is important. The fact that it's situated right in the middle of the busiest part of Shibuya is even more am...
  • Nikko

  • Landmarks & Historical Places, Temples, Shrines ( Kita-Senju )
  • By far one of the best weekend retreats from Tokyo I've ever had. The train ride out there is pretty short and there are tons of hotels with both western and Japanese style rooms. The onsens in this...

  • Keio University Mita Campus

  • Food Courts, Landmarks & Historical Places ( Azabu-juban )
  • While the school's own description holds true and just last year they held a 25th anniversary special, the Mita Campus also holds a very awesome, very cheap student cafeteria. There are two food place...
  • Tokyo International Forum

  • Architecture, Landmarks & Historical Places ( Tokyo Station )
  • There isn't much you can say about a convention space. I mean, it's basically a big box with ever-changing contents. The sections of the building set up for their architectural beauty are a lovely s...
  • Marunouchi Building

  • Shopping Malls, Landmarks & Historical Places, Architecture ( Tokyo Station )
  • This was a fabulous way to spend my afternoon. It is the very image of the modern and chic Tokyo I was expecting when I arrived here. This building is full of delicious restaurants of all price ranges...
  • Sankeien

  • Japanese Gardens, Landmarks & Historical Places ( Yokohama )
  • My family was at the Sankeien during the last cherry blossom period. We were a week early but we could already witness the beginning of the sakura blossoming. It was a sight to behold. Many folks were...
  • Hakone

  • Landmarks & Historical Places ( Machida )
  • Like some other places close to Tokyo, this is a site that books up fast. But if you manage to get a last minute trip through a travel agency like JTB you can score some really rockin' deals. The on...
  • Tokyo Tower

  • Night View Spots, Landmarks & Historical Places ( Azabu-juban )
  • The Monet of tourist attractions: cool from a distance but a total let-down when you see it up close. It is nothing more than a radio tower surrounded by stinky tour buses with a pathetic shopping ce...
  • Tokyo University

  • Landmarks & Historical Places ( Ueno )
  • I went to the campus by bicycle on a random Wednesday afternoon, but there was absolutely nobody around. It was towards the end of semester, and a friend of mine said that perhaps the students just d...
  • Kabukiza

  • Theaters, Landmarks & Historical Places ( Ginza )
  • Kabuki is something you have to experience at least once... or only once. The graceful moves of the kabuki actor and the timely manner of the drum beats are indescribable by words alone. There a...
