One-day trip to Nezu in Tokyo: the perfect combination of culture and nature 🌸🏞️

#TokyoItinerary

For today’s trip, I chose to go to the Nezu area of Tokyo, which is famous for its ancient streets and beautiful shrines. I look forward to exploring this cultural place in depth.

Morning: Visit Nezu Shrine

In the morning, I took the subway to Nezu Station. After walking out of the station, I went to Nezu Shrine first. Built in 1706 AD, this shrine has a unique architectural style and a peaceful atmosphere. I walked around the shrine, admiring the colorful torii gates and beautiful gardens. In spring, the cherry blossoms and azaleas are in full bloom, attracting many tourists. 🌺

In the worship area, I felt the peaceful tranquility and said a prayer, hoping for good luck for the day.

Noon: Enjoy local cuisine

After the morning cultural tour, I went to Nezu's restaurant for lunch. There are many small shops here that serve traditional Japanese cuisine. I chose a popular soba restaurant and ordered a bowl of hot soba noodles, which was paired with fresh seafood. It was delicious and gave me an authentic Japanese feel. 🍜

Afternoon: Visit nearby attractions

After lunch, I headed to another popular spot in the Nezu area, the University of Tokyo. This famous university has a spectacular campus and historic buildings, especially the Akamon and Yasuda Auditorium, which made me linger. I walked around the campus, admiring the ancient trees and the academic atmosphere.

Next, I went to the Botanical Gardens in Bunkyo Ward, which has a variety of plants and flowers and is perfect for people who love nature. Here, I took a leisurely walk and enjoyed the greenery and tranquility around me.

Afterwards, I returned to Nezu to browse the local shops. There were many shops selling handicrafts and specialties, which made me unable to resist picking up some souvenirs. 🛍️

Evening: Enjoy Nezu's Tavern

In the evening, I chose to have dinner at a tavern in Nezu. The atmosphere is cozy and the menu has a wide variety of skewers and small plates. I ordered a few local specialties, paired with sake, and enjoyed a leisurely dinner. 🥢

Night: Night Tour of Nezu

After dinner, I strolled through the streets of Nezu, enjoying the quiet and beauty of the night. The lights on both sides of the street emit a soft glow, making people feel warm. I also stumbled upon an interesting cafe and ended the day with a cup of fragrant coffee.

Today's one-day trip to Nezu made me feel the perfect fusion of Tokyo's culture and nature. This area is not only rich in history and beautiful scenery, but also has delicious food and welcoming locals. If you come to Tokyo, Nezu is definitely a great place to explore! 🌟
