In June 2013, it was rainy in Tokyo. Inexplicably, I decided to go to Tokyo with my friends at this time. The destination of the two girls' trip was decided entirely by their personal interests, perhaps because of a certain drama, perhaps because of a certain book or magazine. In short, it was a very casual trip. So there are no regular attractions, such as sky Tree or asakushi. The journey and so on, finally painstakingly recalled. It can also be regarded as a review of one trip and make a record.

We bought suica at Narita Airport & N'ex round trip package, 5500 yen. When you come out of the arrival hall, you should go to the tourist information center on the ground floor to buy a set of tickets (tickets are not sold on the first floor of the arrival hall). For information about the ticket, see http://www.jreast.co.jp/sc/suica-nex/index.html

Delta's 9:00 a.m. departure was delayed to noon, resulting in that the first day's journey was only at night, and our original plan (going to Yokohama) was completely cancelled. The hotel is located in Shinagawa, Narita Airport direct. This is a new large transit hub located just south of Tokyo. In the next few days, I stood at the shingawa station and watched the flow of people coming to me, which made me realize the huge size of the capital circle.

Narita International Airport

In view of the fact that the original plan was no longer feasible, we decided to take a night tour to Shibuya and huibishou after discussion. The experience of the last few days tells us that as long as we are willing to go, the core area of Tokyo is not very big.

After eating and drinking, take the subway to huibishou. Huibishou garden square is a comprehensive entertainment place rebuilt from the former site of Sapporo Beer Factory. It is also a good place for young people to have dinner and relax. If you have seen the Japanese version of "men in love", Daoming temple is the first place to invite Chinese fir and wait in the rain, It's the stone fountain in front of huibishou garden square. Yeah, that's why we're here :)

Shibuya street can be seen everywhere touting restaurants or taverns business brother, we two girls fans, completely do not know which restaurant to choose in the street full of shops, bumped into by mistake, was a kind-looking glasses girl to take upstairs shop, accidentally ate the first sumptuous Japanese pot.

That night, after returning from Kamakura, we went to daiguanshan and the destination was the nearby pengwu bookstore. It's a great place for people who love design, art, literature and all kinds of Japanese magazines. On the first day, we were too tired to go; The next day, after we came back from Kamakura, we came here again and lingered in this bookstore which operated until 2 o'clock in the night (Tokyo metro operation until midnight is also a great benefit for night owls) ）。 Pengwu Bookstore Daikanyama T-SITE9：00 - 26:00 daiguanshan T-site （〒 150-0033 17-5, ape Lok CHO, Miyagi District, Tokyo

Daiguan mountain

The dinner of that night was the American restaurant next to the bookstore of mooya. At this point, it's amazing that the Japanese are crazy about Hawaii. During the day, our coffee shop at jiangzhidao afternoon tea is aloja themed, and so is the one for dinner. Later, in the shopping mall in Yokohama, we saw a special sales area built entirely around Hawaii to sell all kinds of aloja clothing, surfing equipment and small items.

Day three Come to an art gallery. Although I arranged the trip of Zhudi, I still didn't go to Zhudi market for many reasons, but I ate delicious and fresh sushi rice in the seafood stall behind the market!

Tsukiji Market

As Muji brain meal, I naturally want to visit the Muji flagship store in youleding. There is not much difference between domestic and small commodity types, but Muji house, bicycle, household appliances and other large-scale accessories as well as Muji are displayed as model houses Cafe made me feel excited about living here.

Youle town

When you come out of Youle town and cross a road, you come to Ginza, which witnessed the luxury of Japan's rapid economic development.

Ginza

For anego, I went to Tokyo station and Marunouchi station. This cherry tree has many memories; Anego, standing under the cherry tree, lamented his 8 years of social life. In a twinkling of an eye, it was the drama of 9 years ago.

From Tokyo station to liubenmu. I'm here for you APP Inside the case For the first time. With this device, it's easy to get on the subway in Tokyo. My mother doesn't have to worry that I can't find the subway line any more. You only need to input the starting and ending places to provide the fastest and most accurate subway ride plan, which is a necessary app for Tokyo tourism. Shopping mall leading to 21-21 Art Museum and liubenmu green space Tokyo Midtown。

21-21 It's a pity that the gallery was closed on that day.

From the new National Art Museum, through the quiet high-end residential area, came to liubenmu. Tokyo Tower in view of liubenmu. Liubenmu famous landmark, is a large spider sculpture, crowd surging, did not take the ideal picture, sorry.

After that, I went to the famous Mori Art Museum in liubenmu to catch up with the 10th Anniversary Exhibition of liubenmu（ During the exhibition, except for an exhibition hall in Kusama, no shooting is allowed.)

This evening's dinner is a French restaurant in liubenmu. Is cheese free, big brother? Too much to eat! The food experience in the next few days made us respect the Japanese girl's big stomach. Although each dish was very delicious, it was really made of too much ingredients and too much weight, so that we would have left over dinner for both of us...

Restaurant: huit

One of the highlights of the day, the national new museum of art! It's so emotional! If a society can provide people with such public infrastructure with standards and aesthetic taste, it is really a great blessing.

National New Art Gallery

Lunch at Jixiang temple, one of the most popular residential communities in Tokyo, is also the only way to Sanying city. There are many second-hand ancient books for sale, and restaurants are very homely. We tried this Japanese style coffee shop for lunch. Most of the people who came for dinner were local residents. The old ladies came to the party together and ordered coffee. It was very emotional. Japanese pasta, limited in summer.

Restaurant: Spring House Coffee

Kichijoji

After returning to Tokyo, I went to another place, Nakamura. Cherry trees are planted on both sides of a river running through the city of Tokyo. During the cherry blossom season, there will be an amazing scenery here. In Zhongmuhei area, there are many low rise residential houses or communities. Along the roadside of the street, there are many shops. Many designer brands or small restaurants gather here, a bit like Julu road or Wukang road in Shanghai? In short, it's a good place to waste a whole day in a pleasant mood. Another reason for coming here is also because of the Japanese drama "the perfect divorce" at the beginning of the year. All the students who have seen it should know that the laundry run by my wife is actually in Zhongmu black. In real life, it is really a laundry. The apartment where the couple live is the residential building where the laundry is located. We also imitated the hobby of Yingtai's husband in the drama. We ran quickly from the side of the bridge in front of the laundry and enjoyed playing for several times.

Middle eye black

I took the subway from Nakamura to Harajuku, and then went all the way to biaoshen road. I was looking for the monocle coffee shop in Tokyo. Unfortunately, I didn't find it. Maybe I have moved? In the twinkling of an eye, it's getting dark and there's no time to look for it. It's a great pity in this trip. But that night, it was worthwhile to have dinner at bills, a hot restaurant in the city, waiting for a table or something

Biao Shen Dao

The weather began to clear up at noon on that day, and there were no clouds in all kinds of places. In the afternoon, we went back to shingawa in Tokyo from mukengjin (yes, it only takes half a day for mukengjin to go back and forth + sightseeing, if we don't need a special in-depth visit). We decided to go to the original place where we passed in a hurry yesterday. Harajuku station still retains the old buildings, which is in sharp contrast to the various fashionable men and women walking in Harajuku, which is one of the trend indicators in Tokyo.

Harajuku

On the outside of the platform of Harajuku station, the advertisement for the Olympic bid shows the Japanese women's football team, which has made great achievements in recent years. At that time, walking on the streets of Tokyo, you can see the advertisement of bidding for the Olympic Games everywhere. Now it should be the end.

Chuxiatong entrance, which makes Harajuku famous. All kinds of Harajuku popular culture are concentrated in this narrow alley, dazzled and unable to choose.

Harajuku

As of this time, the city was closed, and the city was able to take the place except the pancake. It is an emergency fire bombing of the face of the house. I come to my wife's black tea green tea mousse ？ It is said that the reason is to say that the amount of money, the length of the foot, the size of the grand empress, and the empress of the empress are unfinished ＝

Harajuku

Walk out of Yuansu station and face the street. Turn right (don't turn left. You have to make a big circle to get to Meiji Temple). You will come to Meiji temple bridge. Turn right again and you will enter the avenue around Meiji temple. It's summer, walking on this quiet and cool Avenue, we feel happy. After walking for more than half a day, we feel a little tired, and we feel light footed with the green in front of us.

Meiji Temple

It seems that the Meiji temple will hold wedding ceremony every day. In this era, we should cherish our country's traditional customs and let them continue better. The custom of holding a red umbrella has been around for a long time in Guangdong. We can study the origin of this custom.

Meiji Temple

At the end of the visit to Meiji temple, the time was about 5 o'clock. As soon as they were together, we rushed to the next destination, Yokohama. The subway from Tokyo to Yokohama takes about an hour. Yokohama is a city that people will love. It is clean and refreshing, with red brick factory, big trestle, Ferris wheel, park at the foot of the mountain, and many historical buildings. As one of the cities that opened ports earlier, Yokohama has accepted foreign culture and preserved the characteristics of Japanese tradition.

Yokohama.

The grand trestle, with its unique shape, has introduced appropriate public facilities, integrating solar energy, green space, exhibition center, etc. We finally found a chance to have a rest. We looked at yokohama harbor from the railing, watched the lovers talking and walking on the trestle, and waited for the opportunity to shoot the night scene. After that, we felt a little regret for this move, because we went to the red brick factory after seeing the night scene happily. We couldn't take a picture of the red brick factory, and the red brick factory stopped business early every night, and we didn't have a good look inside. The ideal sequence seems to be to use the time before sunset to go to the red brick factory first, and then go to the big trestle to wait for the night view when the night is a little dark.

Yokohama.

Later, when I strolled around the city, I saw the famous Japanese pill. It's spectacular and handsome.

We walked higher and higher that day, completely forgetting fatigue. From Yokohama back to Tokyo, it is about 11 p.m., but the rainy days make us nostalgic for this sudden sunny day. On a clear night like this, I'm sure I can sweep away the frustration of not seeing the Tokyo tower a few nights ago and enjoy watching it. Yes, the most desirable part of this trip to Tokyo is actually the Tokyo Tower. sky Of course, trees are more tall and straight, but I always feel that only the orange red Tokyo Tower can best represent Tokyo. A little anecdote is that when we passed by the bottom of the Tokyo Tower, we saw an advertisement for a Japanese tofu shop. At that time, we joked and said, "Oh, who is still eating tofu under the Tokyo Tower?". Later, I saw the introduction in a magazine. It was a very famous tofu shop, and the environment inside the shop was very elegant, with all kinds of Japanese courtyards. Sure enough, you can't judge a man by his appearance, and you can't measure the sea. Next time I go to Tokyo, I must try that tofu shop.

Tokyo Tower

Day six Finally came to the heart of the Shenle ban. This is the only sunny day in the trip, and we are also very glad that both of them very much want to visit places such as shenleban, Keio University and Tokyo University, which are all concentrated on this day. The first stop in the morning is Keio University, one of Japan's top universities. Sanyin station of duying or Asakusa line. This famous private school was founded by Yukichi Fukuzawa in 10000 yen. Let's take a look at what wiki says: Yukichi Fukuzawa's name is "the independent and self respecting resident of the grand temple", a famous Japanese thinker and educator in Meiji period, the first president of Tokyo University, the founder of Keio University, a famous private university in Japan, and one of the six famous educators in Meiji period. He advocates the theory of breaking away from Asia, It affected the Meiji restoration movement. Nowadays, many people with more social status will choose to let their children go to Qingying, from kindergarten all the way to university.

The library on the right side of the picture can vaguely see the half body of Fukuzawa Yukichi. The whole campus can feel the breath of the times, quiet, almost no student appearance.

Keio school

Go down the stairs from the side door of Keio Yishu. The cross street outside is Sakura street. You can still see the Tokyo Tower from Sakura street. This street leads straight down to chiyuqiao station, which is also the most common stop for tourists to watch the Tokyo Tower.

Tokyo Tower

At the end of the trip to Qingying, the next stop is shenleban. Yes, it's also because of a Japanese drama "Baiqi, my father.". Shenleban area is a rare Street Lane in Tokyo. Saka, which means slope in Japanese, is a one kilometer long ramp in Shinjuku district. For more information about shenleban's itinerary, please refer to http://www.kagurazaka.info/ And the animated walking map, very cute and interesting. http://www.shinjukuku-kankou.jp/map_ movie_ index.html

Kagurazaka

From every branch of this ramp, you can find many restaurants and kiosks with traditional Japanese decoration. People living here also use bicycles for walking. In the metropolis of Tokyo, it's a rare place to be grounded.

Kagurazaka

Our lunch that day was at a handmade buckwheat noodle shop.

Kagurazaka

Near shenleban, there are two other places to recommend. One is Chicheng shrine, the other is canal cafe。 canal Cafe arranges tables and stools along the river to serve Western-style simple meals and drinks. It's really pleasant to sit here and watch the train passing by the river. We sat there for a full hour, nothing to do, just in a daze, occasionally chatting, writing postcards or taking photos, that sentence: life is always elsewhere, is the best portrayal of the moment.

Kagurazaka

Chicheng shrine was renovated in 2009 by the famous Japanese architect Wei Yanwu, who endowed the ancient shrine with a sense of modernity. Taking into account the local residents' habits and living requirements, the new Chicheng shrine won the 2011 good award Design Business of award Solution and housing.

Chicheng Shrine

Our third stop is the famous Tokyo University, which starts from the rice field bridge station near shenleban. As the first national university founded in Japan and one of the earliest universities founded in Asia, Japanese high school students' yearning for Dongda is expected to match Tsinghua's position in the eyes of Chinese people. I don't know why I always get used to visiting local famous universities everywhere. This time, I arranged Qingying and Dongda. If it wasn't for the limited time, I would definitely go to Waseda.

The university is quite an open space. Lovers walk here, a family of three play here, and dogs and their owners come here for a walk. No one is noisy, but they are enjoying the rare good weather after many days of rain.

The night scene of that night was the stage. This piece of land is completely reclaimed from the sea, on the edge of Tokyo Bay, there are large shopping malls, restaurants and the famous Fuji TV station. In addition to the ferris wheel landscape similar to Yokohama, there is also the adrenaline surge of up to! Another famous scenic spot on the stage is the statue of liberty. Yes, yes, the statue of liberty on Manhattan Island. From Taichang Seaside Park, you can also see the rainbow bridge.

Taichang

On the last day, in fact, there was only half a day to stroll to NTV and TBS, and finally to the national assembly hall. Lunch was settled in the mall near TBS. I found an innovative Spanish restaurant. I sat at the bar and watched my brother in the kitchen working hard. I was really a star.

Leaving this day is father's day. I bought a baby's father's puff on the roadside with a warm label on the bag. This is probably what Japanese are good at, not only in material, but also in spirit.
