- - Height of the Tower. Since its opening in 1958, the Tokyo Tower has been the world's tallest self-supporting steel tower. The Eiffel Tower in Paris is 320 m high. - -
Kyoto Tower, finally here! The landmark of Kyoto, located in front of the ultra-modern Kyoto Station. Love the view!
Be ready to enjoy many people from many lands. It is a very popular and crowded destination. For good exercise ... take the walk up the often crowded street.
Come with empty tummies & try all the lovely snacks here - daifuku, oden, octopus, sashimi, sushi etc.
Try okonomiyaki at Chibo, takoyaki at honkeotaco(street shop), and ramen at kinryu ramen or kamakura ramen!
serve 5 unidades de sushi de cada vez e você diz quando está satisfeito. Normalmente as pessoas vão até o 3º prato...
NY SOHO legend continues the delicious soba tradition in Roppongi. Always fresh, always made just right. A strong sense of seasonality is emphasized on the menu as well as some unique offerings.
Kogaryu has been making takoyaki for many decades now - the extra spring onions and yuzu sauce make them special. http://www.kougaryu.jp/index.html
Go upstairs, ask for the English menu, insert money and order on the vending machine, go back outside to wait to be called via the tube by the alley. It's crazy, but just do it :)
As claimed by guidebooks and confirmed by friends, "best burger in Tokyo". I can only agree with that! Superb quality, very pleasant atmosphere, hip surroundings.
Mikawa Zezankyo is the top rated tempura restaurant in Tokyo on Tabelog. http://tabelog.com/tokyo/A1313/A131303/13090866/
Fukamachi is a very well regarded tempura restaurant with a great lunch deal. http://tabelog.com/tokyo/A1302/A130202/13004105/
Best baguette in Tokyo, if not the world. Beats PAUL, Fauchon and Anderssen. Chewy but not too chewy. Crispy but not gum-bleed crispy. Dare yourself not to take a bite on the way home. Bet you can't!
Even if you don't buy anything, just explore this amazing toyshop. One of my favourite shops in the world!
Shinjuku Gyoen is one of Tokyo's largest parks, completed in 1906. one of Tokyo's most popular SAKURA (Cherry blossom) viewing spots.
This museum is kind of amazing for anyone who likes science, space, or has a general curiosity about life.
This place inspired the big fight scene in Kill Bill. Really good food, especially soba.
Great kaiten sushi close to Yoyogi Park. Head up and grab what you want straight off the conveyor belt. It adds up quickly, though.
If you like cats, there are some cat cafes ("neko no mise") where you get a coffee or soda and get to play with cats for a while.
Go at the crack of dawn (like a bit before 5.30am) any day for the tuna auction, get a bowl of tuna sashimi at a stall, and then go take a nap at the hamarikyu botanical gardens nearby.
The gadget shops around Akihabara are pretty stunning. Be aware that most of them sell racks of porn as well.
Full of pretentious wanna-be French Japanese... But with delicious macarons. Skip the long line for the tea room, and go to the 'boutique' for take-out. Second floor of Mitsukoshi. English spoken.
When they say "cheese waffle," they mean a cheese stick in a waffle...not cream cheese, as I expected (but it's still good) :) The curry bread is not to be missed!
Surprisingly, even at an Italian-owned chain, the food at Salvatore Cuomo is toned-down for the Japanese palate. Skip the tasteless lunch buffet and come for dinner for a more (semi) authentic taste! Read more.
Try the locally-brewed ales and awesome fish and chips. I have to stop here every trip to Japan.
7 floors of mostly Western music and the largest book collection of Rock I've ever seen.
An icon on the recent japanese craft beer scene. A little bit pricey but worth. Now, try all beers from Baird Brewery and discover that Japan has more than sushi to offer to the world
Kaiten(revolving conveyor belt) sushi is old school. Enter bullet train sushi(≖ ‿ ≖)✧ where the ordered sushi zooms to you on demand.
Uno de los mejores restaurantes de Santiago precio/calidad sin lugar a dudas. Los vinos, botellas y copas, son una delicia. Lo erizos más frescos de la ciudad. Amo este lugar!!!
