If you’re taking the Shinkansen or JR, you’ll probably pass through here. Before I knew it, I had spent almost an hour browsing around.

Takenoko no Sato
Takenoko no Sato is one of the signature products of Meiji Co., Ltd. (hereafter, Meiji). Following the huge success of its sister product Kinoko no Yama, it was developed as the second product in the series with a completely different concept. Since its launch in 1979, it has remained a long-selling favorite with a history of more than 45 years.
Both kinds of cookies are pretty good. Most people usually go for the bamboo shoot-shaped one first since the shape is cute and fun, and it’s definitely more popular.

Haneda Airport (Tokyo International Airport)
Haneda is Japan’s largest airport, officially called Tokyo International Airport. Each of the three terminals has an observation deck where you can watch closely the airplanes take off and land, shopping facility, and restaurants with different cuisines.
There are quite a lot of bus departures from Haneda Airport. You can get direct service to places like Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Tokyo Station, and the staff will help with your luggage too. Overall, the service is really good.

Shinjuku Expressway Bus Terminal
Opened in 2016, Shinjuku Expressway Bus Terminal stands as one of Japan’s largest highway bus terminals, located at JR Shinjuku Station’s South Exit. With around 90 bus operators serving the terminal, it connects destinations from Aomori in the north to Fukuoka in the south, with over 1,600 bus departures daily.
Shinjuku is already lively at night, and BUSTA Shinjuku looks even more impressive under the lights. With so many travelers coming and going with their luggage, you can really feel the energy of Tokyo as an international metropolis.
