Day 1 — Arrival in Tokyo & Night Walk in Shibuya

After arriving at the airport and checking into the accommodation, I headed straight to Shibuya.
As soon as I arrived at the Shibuya Scramble Crossing, I was overwhelmed by the countless people and neon signs…!
I stopped by a Monjayaki restaurant for a light dinner, and the aroma sizzling on the iron griddle still lingers in my memory.
At night, I took a walk all the way to Tokyo Tower! The night view was insanely beautiful.

Day 2 — Enoden Ride to Enoshima & Kamakura

On this day, I decided to go a bit farther and took the Enoden train to Enoshima, filled with the scent of the sea!
I met some cats, saw the lighthouse, and climbed up to the shrine—the view was truly artistic…
In Kamakura, I also visited the Great Buddha (Daibutsu) and took a quiet stroll around the temple.
It was a day where I could feel a peacefulness different from the city.

Day 3 — Sensoji, Asakusa & Ueno Tour

In the morning, I visited Sensoji! Among traditional Japanese architecture, the scent of incense, and bustling tourists, I experienced another side of Japan.
I also stopped by the nearby Tsukiji Market and quickly enjoyed a fresh plate of sushi!
In the afternoon, I leisurely wrapped up the day with a walk through Ueno Park.
Ueno Zoo was larger than I expected and had many cute animals, which was pure healing.
