TOKYO Solamachi
With a wide variety of over 300 shops gathered in this retail complex, you can feel the liveliness of Tokyo’s shitamachi downtown.
The mall is really big and there are lots of shops, but on weekends there are honestly way too many people, which makes walking around a bit annoying.
The lines for the restaurants are crazy, and the prices are on the touristy side.
It’s fine to stop by if you’re passing through, but I wouldn’t make a special trip to come here again.
Flags
This shopping facility is constantly suggesting new lifestyle shifts from various perspectives, including fashion, music, and sports. Here you’ll find flagship stores from popular brands, and there are plenty of fashion choices for both men and women.
Flags has an awesome location—just outside Shinjuku South Exit. Super easy to find your way, you'll never get lost here.
Keio Plaza Hotel Tokyo
Opened in 1971 with the aim of being a "city square" in Shinjuku, the biggest town in Japan with high-rise buildings lining up. This high-rise hotel is 170 meters tall, consisting of two towers: the main building and the south building. It is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from the west exit of Shinjuku Station. It provides services as a high-quality international hotel for guests visiting from both Japan and abroad.
There are tons of places to eat nearby—ramen, izakayas, cafes, you name it. There's even a free shuttle bus to Disneyland, so you don't have to transfer trains. Super convenient!
Okayama Ichibangai
Okayama Ichibangai is one of the largest underground shopping malls in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions, directly connected to JR Okayama Station’s east exit underground gates. Complete with a massive 8,000m2 first basement floor, check off your list for daily or travel needs with 90 diverse shops, including fashion boutiques, cosmetics stores, specialty corners to shop, plus restaurants, cafes and more.
There are lots of food options here. You can get udon, ramen, or barazushi. Whenever you get hungry while shopping, you can easily find something to eat.
Tokyo Disneyland
Known and loved as the “kingdom of dreams and magic”, this full-scale themepark is just a 15 min. train ride from Tokyo Station.
All the staff here are super friendly and always smiling. They're really polite too, which totally gives off that classic Disney vibe.
