To embark on a self-guided trip to Japan, one can do some research beforehand in China or practice planning the trip on their own. For example, if one lives in Zhejiang, they can plan a self-guided trip to Hainan Province, arrange transportation by high-speed rail or flight, and plan one or two-day tours using public transportation upon arrival at the destination. Heading to Tokyo for a self-guided tour? Here are a few one-day itinerary suggestions to share~ 1. One-day tour to Ueno Park, Asakusa, and Tokyo Skytree. This area is a typical Edo-style downtown area, and for the elderly, it is the place where they can immediately feel the "Japanese style"! Breakfast can be arranged at the Starbucks in Ueno Onshi Park, then stroll along the trail to the National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo National Museum, and so on. For lunch, you can enjoy Western cuisine at "Ueno Seiyoken". In the afternoon, take the Ginza Line from Ueno-hirokoji Station to Asakusa Station, take a walk to Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa, have some snacks at Nakamise-dori, and climb up to Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Center to see the panoramic view of Asakusa. After nightfall, take the Asakusa Line from Asakusa Station to Oshiage Station and then head to the Skytree. There are many famous foods in the shopping center, so take a stroll and buy souvenirs while enjoying the night view after dinner! 2. One-day tour of Meiji Shrine, Omotesando, and Roppongi. This area combines the green jungle of the city with modern civilization. In the morning, you can enjoy a Western-style breakfast at an American restaurant in front of Harajuku. The "Meiji Shrine", surrounded by greenery and a quiet atmosphere, is a favorite spot for the elderly. In the afternoon, you can appreciate the beauty of urban architecture on "Omotesando" and have an afternoon tea date. In the evening, you can enjoy dinner in "Roppongi" and then climb the "Mori Tower" to admire the Tokyo night view. (If you are interested in art appreciation, the "Roppongi Art Triangle" includes the Midtown, Roppongi Hills, and National Art Center Tokyo in Roppongi.) 3. One-day trip to the Ghibli Museum, Inokashira Park, and Kichijoji. The Ghibli Museum is an art museum suitable for all ages. After enjoying breakfast in Tokyo, head to the outskirts to visit the "Mitaka" Ghibli Museum, a great attraction. Lunch can be enjoyed at the "Red Cap Cafe" inside the museum. After lunch, take a leisurely stroll through the beautiful "Inokashira Park" in any season, and even take a swan boat ride. In the afternoon, visit the nearby "Kichijoji Shopping Street" to browse through various shops and taste local snacks. It will surely be a perfect day trip. (If you still have energy, you can return to Shinjuku City Hall at night to enjoy the night view.) 4. Yokohama day trip A day trip near the suburbs, Yokohama is also a great place to plan. You can go a little further to arrange "Kamakura", or even go to "Shonan Coast" and "Enoshima". Otherwise, you can go to "Akarenga Warehouse" for Bill's breakfast early in the morning, and then stroll around Yamashita Park and the harbor. For lunch, you can go to Chinatown, and after the meal, visit the Western-style buildings in the "Motomachi" and "Yamate area". In the evening, return to the "Yokohama Landmark Tower" for dinner, and then climb to the 70th floor to enjoy the Yokohama night view. This is also a complete day trip. In Japan, you can see many silver-haired people traveling around after retirement. They start their life at the age of seventy. In Japan, you can also see many silver-haired people who, although retired, return to the workplace to work hard or participate in photography and flower arrangement courses to cultivate new interests. They manage their colorful life even in their old age. With a young mentality, as long as they have energy and time, come and join the silver-haired Tokyo free tour. Whether it's a couple, or with three to five good friends or old classmates, traveling together can bring new joy to life! At the age of approaching sixty, I have been traveling to Tokyo for more than thirty years. I hope to bring more joy and help to everyone's travels!

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? You can start from Asakusa Temple, walk across the Sumida River along the "Tokyo Water Street" to the Sky Tree, get to know Tokyo with your "vision"; or start a gourmet journey on the tip of your tongue, go to Shibuya Miyashita Park to taste the special food from all over Japan with your "taste"; In the evening, you can climb high and look far, watch a light show at Shibuya SHIBUYA SKY; finally, end the day's journey and return to the Tokyo Royal Prince Hotel Garden Tower Hotel, look up at the night sky of Tokyo and the Tokyo Tower, and "feel" the super romantic Tokyo! 【Asakusa】 The Asakusa area of Tokyo still retains the bold and unrestrained characteristics of the common people in the Edo period of Japan. The streets, temples, and shrines here inject a strong sense of history into this area. Riding a rickshaw, you can get another unique perspective to visit Asakusa. 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!

Tokyo is one of my favorite cities in the world! I could go back again and again and always find something to do! The city is spread out over a huge area and each part is unique! My favorite thing to do in a city is to walk around, get a feel for the locale, and take hundreds of photos! If this is what you love, I can recommend four areas you should visit in Tokyo: 1️⃣ Ueno - A busy area with an open air market. Climb the steps toward Ueno Park just across the street from Ueno Railway Station and you’ll find some cool views of the streets below and the trains overhead! 2️⃣ Asakusa - The Senso-Ji temple is the main draw here. You’ll also be able to take your iconic Tokyo shots with the Tokyo Sky Tree towering overhead in the background! 3️⃣ Akihabara - This area is video game heaven where you’ll find lots of cool merchandise. The signs, cables, trains, and madness are an extra bonus that make for some great photos! 4️⃣ Shinjuku - One of the busiest areas in Tokyo, you should visit here day and night! Be it the cocoon tower or the iconic neon signage, you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes snapping photos! Enjoy your city walk and don’t forget your 📸 #tokyo #japan #trip #tripmoments #freehotelstay #travel #travelinspiration #city #citywalk #photography #wanderlust

#thingstodo Great shop just off the main hustle-and-bustle. Menu is a beautiful mix of traditional and modern sweets, with modest prices and stunning presentation. They've got a QR menu with photos for anyone who doesn't speak Japanese, and staff were super friendly. Would def visit again.This fantastic coffee shop is steps from Senso-ji, but is serene and so comfortable. We had no wait, terrific service, and some of the best coffee ever. On our way out we were greeted by the proprietor/roaster, who asked where we were from and invited us back on our next visit.
