The most detailed Tokyo free travel route (Day2) on the whole network
🌟How to play in Tokyo❓❓
🎈9:30-11:00 (Tokyo Tower🗼)
You can take big shots everywhere, the photos are super atmospheric! You can check in at the Shiba Park under the Tokyo Tower. There is also a large lawn there. The focus of the characters in the lawn on the Tokyo Tower definitely has an effect you can't think of.
Address: 4-2-8 Shiba Park, Minato-ku, Tokyo (5 minutes walk from Kamiyacho Station)
Business hours: 9:00-22:30
⬇
🎈Kamiyacho Station-Roppongi Station (Tram🚃3 minutes, you can also walk, save money)
⬇
🎈11:20-13:00 (Roppongi)
It's super close to the Tokyo Tower, and it's a must-visit place for everyone in Japan. Recommended attractions, National New Art Museum, Roppongi Observatory, Keyakizaka, Roppongi Nakajo.
⬇13:00-14:00 (Lunch time)🥣
Because I am a ramen control🍜, so I recommend the IRUKA ramen🍜 that has been recommended by Michelin. The queue may be longer, but it's worth eating. You can also eat eel rice and tempura in the surrounding area. A lot will come out with a map search
⬇
🎈Roppongi Station-Shinjuku Station (Tram🚃9 minutes, Toei Oedo Line)
⬇
🎈14:20-17:00 (Shinjuku)
Home appliances, drugstores, Don Quijote, everything you need, although you can't visit Kabukicho at night, you can feel the atmosphere of Kabukicho during the day (I still recommend coming at night if you have time) This time period I am specifically for everyone to buy things, so I recommend Shinjuku
⬇
🎈Shinjuku-Shibuya (Tram🚃7 minutes, Yamanote Line)
⬇
🎈17:20-20:00 (Shibuya)
⬇
I highly recommend Shibuya because I really want everyone to go to Shibuya sky to watch a sunset🌄, immediately set off after shopping in Shinjuku, depending on the season, the sunset time is also different, so everyone must do their homework in advance! After watching, you will know what it feels like! After watching the sunset, you can check in at the Hachiko exit of Shibuya, and then find a local izakaya🏮 for a little drink at night, and then go back to the hotel to sleep.
Tokyo Tower: A Spectacular View of Tokyo's Cityscape from Above 🇯🇵🇯🇵
If you're looking to capture the perfect bird's eye view of Tokyo, a trip to the Tokyo Tower is a must.
Standing at 333 meters tall, the Tokyo Tower offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city. Take in the dazzling lights of the cityscape, including famous landmarks like the Tokyo Skytree and Mt. Fuji on a clear day.
The tower is also home to a glass floor that gives you a thrilling view down to the ground below. Whether you're travelling solo or with friends and family, the Tokyo Tower is a must-visit destination that leaves you with unforgettable memories.

Visiting Tokyo for the first time, how to unlock both the tradition and modernity of Tokyo? Or, if you only have 1 day, how to make the most of Tokyo?

Many shops can correspond in multiple languages, which is very convenient.

When it comes to Shibuya, it reminds people of the bustling and bustling iconic crossroads. The treasure in the center of Shibuya is hidden in the high-rise buildings of Shibuya. Miyashita Park has now been reborn and has become a new type of open space, like a secret garden in a steel and concrete forest. The Shibuya Alley on the first floor is a food alley, where you can taste a variety of local Japanese foods.
【Shibuya SHIBUYA SKY】
The Shibuya landmark Scramble Square is currently the tallest building in Shibuya. The rooftop has the largest rooftop viewing space in Japan, "SHIBUYA SKY", as if walking in the clouds.

The rickshaw driver is very enthusiastic, taking us deep into the streets, making us feel the retro style of the Asakusa area in the Edo period.
【Sky Tree Street】
The Sky Tree not only overlooks the extraordinary beauty of the whole Tokyo, but also has more than 300 shops at the bottom of the tower, "Tokyo Sky Tree Street (TOKYO Solamachi)", where you can buy and eat Japanese specialties and food. Many shops can correspond in multiple languages, which is very convenient.
【Shibuya Miyashita Park】
When it comes to Shibuya, it reminds people of the bustling and bustling iconic crossroads. The treasure in the center of Shibuya is hidden in the high-rise buildings of Shibuya. Miyashita Park has now been reborn and has become a new type of open space, like a secret garden in a steel and concrete forest. The Shibuya Alley on the first floor is a food alley, where you can taste a variety of local Japanese foods.
【Shibuya SHIBUYA SKY】
The Shibuya landmark Scramble Square is currently the tallest building in Shibuya. The rooftop has the largest rooftop viewing space in Japan, "SHIBUYA SKY", as if walking in the clouds. There is also a special light show at night, like entering the time and space gate of another parallel world, it is really cool!
Verve Coffee Roasters Yoyogi Park
Stylish new cafe close to the park, with lots of seating and delicious coffee & bakes 🥐 my favourite thing is that dogs are allowed inside 😍
Coffee comes in a style where you can choose from beans.
I was also able to sample it on this day. There are also cafe lattes. There is also a little food.
The store is spacious
There was like two patio seats outside
