High-Value Tokyo Itinerary Share - Day 3

👜 First Stop - Ginza Isetan Department Store
Take advantage of the cheap yen to shop for luxury goods at the most well-stocked Ginza location. With a passport, you can get an extra 5% cashback on top of the tax refund!
*The bag priced at 77,000 TWD on the Taiwan official website is about 57,000 TWD after tax exemption and a 5% discount.

⛩️ Second Stop - Gotokuji Temple in Setagaya Ward (Maneki Neko Shrine)
The temple is filled with images of beckoning cats, from decorations and statues to beams and pillars, perfect for visitors who love cat elements!
*The shop closes promptly at 3 PM, so be sure to arrive early if you want to buy Maneki Neko items.

💪 Third Stop - Hachiman Shrine in Setagaya Ward (Sumo Shrine)
About a three-minute walk from the Maneki Neko Shrine, it has nearly 900 years of history and features a sumo ring inside, making it quite worthwhile to visit.

🍪 Fourth Stop - RARASAND Egg Cake
A five-minute walk from the Maneki Neko Shrine, besides Maneki Neko-related souvenirs, the Maneki Neko egg cakes and drinks are a must-try!
*Drinks plus stuffed egg cakes cost about 400 TWD.

🥩 Fifth Stop - Rikyu Gyutan in Shinjuku
Head to Shibuya to enjoy beef tongue cuisine. This time, we ordered the premium set with 8 pieces of beef tongue (about 4,400¥ including tax). The beef tongue is fresh and chewy, but all eight pieces are the same flavor, which is a bit monotonous. It’s recommended to choose a mixed flavor set (salt + miso)!

⚾️ Sixth Stop - Shinjuku Baseball Batting Practice Range (Daruge)
Experience the passionate baseball atmosphere in Shinjuku. For sports and baseball fans, this is a must-try (400¥ for 25 balls per round). You can freely adjust the height and speed of the balls, and there’s a nine-grid target to test accuracy and speed. Many foreigners also came to try it out that day!
