teamLab Borderless has no fixed route to follow. The exhibition rooms are all interconnected, and as you wander around, you'll discover new works. The lights, shadows, sounds, and projected images are all very immersive and dazzlingly gorgeous. Some of the works are also interactive, and it's really easy to lose track of time here~

Suitengu Shrine

Located in Ningyocho, an area brimming with downtown charm despite being in the city center, Suitengu Shrine has a rich history. The ninth lord of the Kurume Domain in Fukuoka Prefecture, Arima Yorinori, established a branch shrine at his upper residence in Mita Akabane in 1818, marking the beginning of Suitengu Shrine in Tokyo.

Suitengu Shrine is mainly known for prayers for a safe delivery and fertility, so you can see many ema plaques and amulets related to families and children.
The shrine's architecture isn't particularly ornate, but the white exterior and tidy grounds make it feel very pleasant.

Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum

This ramen-themed museum has gathered ramen restaurants from every corner of the world. Guests can enjoy the taste of famous restaurants from all over without having to fly around the world. Each restaurant also offers mini-ramen on their menu, so it’s great to try them all and compare!

The streets, signs, and restaurant interiors inside the Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum all have a nostalgic Showa-era feel~ This time, I tried the shio ramen at Ryu Shanghai. The broth was savory and salty, and the noodles had a nice texture. I'd like to visit the original location someday!

Coco’s Akihabara Branch

Located near the hub of pop-culture, Akihabara Electric Town. Coco’s, originating in the US, and in Japan since 1980, has now grown to nearly 500 branches, mainly in the Kanto and Kansai region.

Ate at COCO'S family restaurant and ordered a gratin. The hot cheese with the rich sauce was simple but very satisfying, and the drink bar had a nice variety too! The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable, and the seating was perfect for chatting at a leisurely pace.
Rather than famous places that tourists have to try, I prefer family restaurants like this that Japanese people also go to regularly~

What makes teamLab so special is that you don't simply look at the exhibits—you feel like you're actually stepping into the artwork. From walking barefoot through water to spaces filled with mirrors, lights, and flowers, each area offers a different sensory experience.
Although some areas are crowded and you have to wait to take photos, it's still a lot of fun overall. It's not much like a traditional art museum—it's an art experience you can interact with yourself!

Sunshine Aquarium

This aquarium is built on the roof of a building in Sunshine City, a large-scale commercial facility in Ikebukuro. It is made up of three areas: “Sky Journey,” “Ocean Journey,” and “Waterfront Journey.”

I happened to visit Sunshine Aquarium during its Detective Conan collaboration, and the character illustrations were really nice!
The aquarium itself isn't very big, but the exhibits are arranged in a distinctive way. Besides the various marine animals, there are also the eye-catching Sky Penguins, where you can see penguins swimming between tall buildings. It's a very unusual sight~
The atmosphere inside the aquarium is relaxed and pleasant, making it a good place to visit when you're tired from shopping.

ICHIRAN Souhonten -Headshop & Office-

Located within the headquarters of Ichiran, this is the main store of the renowned ramen chain which is not only present all over Japan, but also overseas, in places like New York, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Among the many famous tonkotsu ramen shops in Fukuoka, Ichiran is particularly popular.

Ichiran Ramen is a classic meal to have when visiting Japan. Its most distinctive feature is the individual booth-style seating, where you can quietly finish a bowl of ramen and really focus on enjoying the food! The ramen broth is rich, and you can also customize the noodles to your liking. Although quite a few people were waiting in line, the meal was very satisfying~

Sensoji Temple

This iconic destination in Asakusa sees as many as 30 million visitors each year. It stands as a well-loved mainstay in Tokyo, all while hosting a number of annual traditions like the first temple visit at New Years, Setsubun and more across the year.

Sensoji Temple is a place with a strong cultural feel. Starting with the large red lantern at the Kaminarimon Gate, you can immediately sense the rich atmosphere of traditional Japan. Walking along Nakamise Street to the temple, the little shops along the way are also full of character. There were many visitors, making it very lively!

Yokohama Chinatown

Yokohama Chinatown, one of Japan’s three major Chinatowns, is a district lined with countless Chinese restaurants. From affordable dishes you can enjoy as takeout or all-you-can-eat meals to authentic Chinese cuisine, there are options to suit your budget.

The streets of Chinatown are filled with colorful gates, lanterns, and Chinese restaurants, creating a lively atmosphere that feels very different from a typical Japanese neighborhood. There are lots of snacks to choose from along the way, and the meat buns, dumplings, fried chicken cutlets, and more all look delicious!!
Although it feels quite touristy overall, the mix of various Chinese elements with Japanese streetscapes creates a very interesting international atmosphere~

The Art Aquarium Museum GINZA felt like an immersive exhibition combining technology, art, and living creatures. With the lighting and music, the fish that would normally just be swimming around became the most eye-catching works of art in the space. The brilliant colors, projections, and installations gave the entire space a dreamy and slightly mysterious atmosphere. It’s a very nice place for people who enjoy photography or spatial design.
