The building itself was designed by Kisho Kurokawa and honestly feels like a work of art. Sitting down for a coffee and quietly enjoying the subtle changes in light inside was a really nice experience.

Meiji Jingu Gaien (Outer Garden)
Meiji Jingu Gaien, the outer park of Meiji Shrine, was established in 1926. It features the Meiji Memorial Picture Gallery and various sports facilities, such as the Meiji Jingu Stadium, where you can enjoy nature throughout the four seasons.
It takes a short walk from the inner garden to the outer garden. In autumn, the ginkgo tree path at Meiji Jingu Gaien turns into a golden tunnel. There are 380 cherry blossom trees planted on both sides, and during cherry blossom season, lots of visitors come here to enjoy the flowers.

Isetan Shinjuku
The main branch “Shinjuku Isetan”, designated a historical landmark of Tokyo, is an old department store made up of several buildings, such as one mainly specializing in men’s items, and the Isetan Kaikan that mostly comprises restaurants and cafés.
Isetan is also known as the Fashion Museum and is said to have the highest sales of any department store in the world. If you're in Tokyo, this is definitely a shopping spot you shouldn't miss.
