Tokyo Tower is more than just a landmark. It feels like a symbol of Tokyo’s early prosperity. Compared with the modern vibe of Tokyo Skytree, it has a bit more nostalgia and retro charm. Especially when it’s lit up at night, the atmosphere feels really warm.

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.
The location is really convenient. It’s not too far to walk from Shinjuku Station, and the area nearby is lively with plenty of places to eat and shop.
For Tokyo, the room was fairly spacious, which made the stay much more comfortable. -

Oniyanma Gotanda Main Store
Just within a mere 100 meters of Gotanda Station, Oniyanma proudly serves authentic Sanuki udon in the bustling and convenient Gotanda area, a hub known for its eclectic mix of office districts, entertainment hubs, and upscale residential neighborhoods, all in close proximity to Shinagawa.
Even late at night, there were still a lot of people.
It was just a simple bowl of udon, but it was really memorable. The fried toppings with the broth were especially comforting. -

The Maple Mania: "Maple Butter Cookie"
"The Maple Mania" is a dessert brand that offers sweets made with maple sugar, including financiers, pie sandwiches, and baumkuchen. The "Maple Butter Cookie" has been the brand's number one best-seller and has been beloved for over 10 years since its inception.
The packaging feels really premium, so it makes a great gift. The cookies themselves have a light caramel and buttery milk flavor, and overall they really feel like a perfect fall and winter dessert.
