ecute Ueno
Located inside the ticket gates at JR Ueno Station, ecute Ueno is a convenient shopping facility with more than 60 permanent shops ranging from food to fashion and miscellaneous goods. Because Ueno Station is a terminal station served by many lines, it is also ideal when you need to adjust your sightseeing plans on a rainy day or want to stop by in between journeys.
ecute Ueno, located inside Ueno Station, is a great place to browse before or after catching a train. There are plenty of sweets, souvenirs, restaurants, and household goods, with a wide variety of shops. Just walking around, you'll find quite a few things you'll want to buy.
This time, I stopped in for a look while passing through Ueno Station. The wide selection of Japanese sweets and souvenirs kept catching my eye. It's conveniently located, and since all the shops are together inside the station, even if you're in a hurry, you can quickly shop before catching your train.

Tsukiji Outer Market
Over 400 food shops and restaurants gather speciality shops. Suppliers, general shoppers for daily food, and tourists searching for specialty food always crowd even though after a change of the location of the central wholesale market from Tsukiji to Toyosu in October, 2018.
What I love most about Tsukiji Outer Market is its lively atmosphere filled with the aroma of seafood! The market has lots of fresh fish and seafood, and as you walk around, you can see all kinds of ingredients. Everything looks so fresh.
Besides being able to buy fresh seafood, quite a few shops also serve freshly grilled seafood. It’s really hard to resist buying some when you smell it as you walk through the market!

Tsukiji Hongwanji Temple
Located near the Tokyo Tsukiji Market, Tsukiji Hongwanji is a temple of the Jodo Shinshu Hongwanji Sect, whose head temple is Nishi Hongwanji in Kyoto.
Tsukiji Hongwanji Temple in Tokyo caught my eye at first sight. Its exterior is very different from what you usually imagine a Japanese temple to look like, with a strong exotic style. The enormous main hall looks very impressive, and it makes a striking backdrop for photos.
Once inside the temple, the space is also quite spacious, and the decorative details are worth taking your time to appreciate. Afterward, you can stop by the nearby Tsukiji Outer Market for some food. Visiting both together works out perfectly.
