4. Shinjuku Memory Lane

Like its name, walking down this narrow alley of traditional Japanese restaurants will bring you on a trip down Japan’s memory lane. This is quite a hidden gem as most people prefer walking around the modernised shopping areas at the Shinjuku district nearby!

It is definitely an Instagram-worthy spot and you will get a true taste of olden Tokyo while basking in the local Japanese culture.

6. Zojoji Temple

Located in the middle of Zojoji Park, the Zojoji Temple is a total beauty. You can experience the Japanese’s main religion and its practices in this temple but remember to abide by their rules as a form of respect.

Since it is located inside Zojoji Park, you will also be able to get a good view of the Tokyo Tower from the temple grounds!

7. Roppongi Hills Skydeck

Roppongi hills is deemed a city in a city because this building complex has apartments, offices and restaurants all within its compound. Located right in the middle of it all is the observatory tower, where you can get a panoramic view of the entire Tokyo city.

The view in the day and night is completely different but we definitely prefer the latter, when the city looks like a sky full of stars!

8. Shibuya Crossing

Everyone knows of the renowned Shibuya Crossing where thousands of people pass through this crossing every single day. This is a must-visit spot for all tourists to experience the busiest intersection in the whole world. You can also visit the famous Hachiko statue just nearby!
