Find the best neon lights in Shinjuku

Shinjuku at night time is a must if you want to see the bright lights and neon signs Tokyo is famous for. The Kabukicho district is where you’ll find the red gate entrance and the best neon signs.

If you want a free observation deck, you can visit Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building and see views over the city at 202m high. The observation deck is all inside and enclosed. Look for Main Building No. 1 to find the Observatory Elevator on the first floor, just look for the line of tourists and you’ll find it.

There’s a giant Godzilla at Hotel Gracery that lights up, roars and steam billows out on the hour. You can also visit the hotels 8th floor terrace to see Godzilla at head level.

The most famous alleyway in Shinjuku is Omoide Yokocho. It’s filled with a collection of small bars, yakitori restaurants and street food stalls. It has an amazing atmosphere to walk down with lanterns lining the whole alley. It does get very busy and crowded with people walking up and down but well worth the visit even if you don't eat or drink here. #japan #shinjuku
