"Shinjuku's Memories Alley is a spot where eateries reminiscent of the Showa era line narrow alleys. In autumn, the soft lighting and the contrast of autumn leaves create a warm ambiance.
🔹 Recommended Photo Spots
Alley lined with red lanterns → A charming scene unique to the alley📸
Yakitori stall with rising smoke → The steam and light from the food create a magical atmosphere🔥

🔹 Tips
