It was super crowded during summer vacation. I skipped a lot of animal areas because there were just too many people.

Tokyu Plaza Ginza
This is a large business complex that displays the charm of traditions and innovation coexisting in the Ginza area. Inside, there are shops that combine trends and formality with the concept of "Creative Japan 〜The world will become more interesting from here〜".
The interior design is stylish and modern.
There’s an open rest area and a rooftop garden upstairs, so it’s not just for shopping — you can also sit down, have a coffee, and enjoy the view.
They carry a good range of items, from clothing to small accessories. -

Sensoji Temple
This iconic destination in Asakusa sees as many as 30 million visitors each year. It stands as a well-loved mainstay in Tokyo, all while hosting a number of annual traditions like the first temple visit at New Years, Setsubun and more across the year.
When you think of Asakusa, you think of the big lantern at Kaminarimon. The Wind and Thunder Gods guard Sensoji Temple on both sides. After passing through the huge lantern, you reach a bustling shopping street packed with people.

Magome Inn
“Nakasendo” is one of the five highways that were constructed during the Edo period to connect Kyoto and Edo. Magome Inn is the 43rd post town on the Nakasendo. It is an inn town along a slope paved with stone pavement, and you can feel the atmosphere of the Edo period. Both sides of the road are lined with stores selling freshly baked gohei-mochi (rice cakes), oyaki (wheat cakes), etc., where you can enjoy eating and strolling.
The soba noodles at the Magome-kan downstairs are super tasty! 🤤
