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~ -
