Japan Trip : Day 3 - Tokyo


Day 3 : Nakamise > Shibuya > Meiji Shrine > Yoyogi Park > Harajuku > Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building.



1. NAKAMISE STREET

A good night rest is essential. Especially on the first night. 
We began our third day at the streets of Nakamise located in front of Sensoji Temple. 


The sun was out. It lifted our spirits from the gloomy day before.



Red Bean Snack. 

It was really good. You can taste the bean's flavor & texture!

2. SHIBUYA

How to go : Shibuya Station





Street Go-Kart Tokyo Tour passing by.
Reminds me of Simon & Martina.

Yours truly. 

Hachiko Statue





3. MEIJI SHRINE

How to go : Take a 10-20 minutes walk from Shibuya Station or
a few minutes walk from Harajuku Station

When we reached there around 4pm, it was already closed to public. 
So make sure you double check the closing time before coming here. 
Since we got here late, we had to move this to our next day's schedule. 




4. YOYOGI PARK

How to go : Take a 5 minute walk from Meiji Shrine




Had some snacks there. The Ice Cream was better than the mochi.

5. HARAJUKU

How to go :
1. Walking distance from Yoyogi Park
2. Harajuku Station


Tokyu Plaza Omotesando Harajuku
Didn't do our homework on how to take pictures here.
Otherwise they would look awesome like these :

Harajuku Street



Crepes everywhere!

Angel Hearts Crepes

Spot the Halloween theme packaging

Croquantchou from Zaku Zaku
If you don't visit a Purikura in Japan, you are not in Japan! 



Good or Bad? Your choice ;)



6. TOKYO METROPOLITAN GOVERNMENT BUILDING

How to go :
1.Take a train from Harajuku station and take the west exit of JR Shinjuku Station
2. Take a train to Tocho-Mae Station on the Oedo Subway Line which is located in the basement of the building.

It is abosoultely free to have a good view of Tokyo's skyline which is really hard to come by,
You can opt for other places but they normally have entrance fee.
There are two buildings - North and South which opens on different days
