Good experience

Tokyo offers a plethora of attractions, shopping opportunities, and sights to enjoy. Despite the large number of tourists, it doesn't dampen the mood for shopping and sightseeing. There are many limited-edition products available during specific periods. If you're not a fan of shopping, you can still discover beautiful landscapes and parks where you can sit down, reflect, and embrace a slower pace of life while appreciating the scenery. One of the best aspects of Tokyo is that most restaurants and shops close late, allowing visitors to shop and leisurely enjoy delicious food without feeling rushed.

#springitinerary Shibuya is pure energy. Standing in the middle of the famous Shibuya Crossing, surrounded by bright lights, massive screens, and waves of people moving in every direction, it instantly reminded me of Times Square in NYC—but with a cooler, more organized vibe. It’s chaotic in the most exhilarating way. Every corner is alive—with fashion, music, neon, and nonstop movement. Whether you’re people-watching, shopping, or just soaking it all in, there’s something electric about being in the middle of it all. From the towering billboards to the steady flow of trendy locals and curious travelers, Shibuya is Tokyo at its most iconic and vibrant. And yet, a few steps away, you can duck into quiet alleyways filled with cozy cafes, hidden bars, and quirky boutiques. It’s the kind of place that feels alive 24/7—and you’ll want to keep coming back.

Hello, today I will share my travel experience with Trip.com. I got my flight ticket at a very good price even though I traveled during Japan's high season in February 2025. The latest update on places to visit for first-timers in Japan that you can't miss is Shibuya, which is a place with shops, restaurants, fashion shops, and many teenagers who dress chicly and stylishly come to visit. This is a place that gathers the most interesting landmarks in one place. I have to say that I met a lot of Thais, lol. The first meal of the day after leaving my luggage at the hotel, I didn't miss the chance to eat ramen. Since we're in Japan, we have to eat the original. I can't remember which shop it was, but it was in Shibuya. It was very delicious. The next day, I went to Mount Fuji at Kawaguchiko. A tip I would like to recommend for traveling to Mount Fuji is to watch the weather carefully. On the day I went, I felt lucky that it was snowing, but unfortunately, when it snows, we can't see the top of Mount Fuji because the clouds will completely cover it. So I can't see Mount Fuji. I'm very sad, but it's the first time I've touched snow and played in it. I made an MV for one match. I would like to tell you a technique for traveling to many places. I recommend buying the Tokyo Wide Pass because it will help you save on travel expenses for traveling to distant cities that can use the same pass. The pass that I bought is a fixed price for three days. We can travel to other provinces within the specified route. The price that I bought was around 3,400 baht. I could travel to Mt. Fuji and also travel to the famous ski resort, Gala Yusawa. The weather when I went was on February 3, 2025 at -1 degrees Celsius. It was very cold and it was snowing. It was snowing heavily at that time. I recommend wearing a jacket and thick heat tech. After returning from the ski resort on the 4th, I went to a famous temple in Asakusa called Senjoji Temple to pray for good luck in my career and finances. Before going back, I stopped by to buy souvenirs from there because there were a lot of local shops. I got some strawberry mochi that was very delicious. I had to buy some. If I didn't buy it, I had to try it at least once. The strawberries were very big and only cost 50 baht per piece. Then I traveled to Narita Airport and returned to Bangkok via Trip.com as usual. Here is a summary of travel expenses for my first trip to Japan. I visited Tokyo, Kawaguchiko, and Gala Yusawa Ski Resort. This trip, the round-trip ticket costs 17,000 baht, accommodation costs 20,000 baht, staying in the Roppongi area called Remm Roppongi. For those who love shopping, prepare a lot of money for shopping because there are many things to buy and they are cheaper than in Thailand. But if you just eat, travel, and shop normally, prepare for 5 days, 20,000 is enough. For those who love shopping, prepare a lot, kiss kiss, no ceiling, haha. The trip ended with 5 days and 4 nights at around 60,000 baht, including accommodation and airfare.

After 5 yrs managed to make my 2nd trip to Japan .. and I started questioning my decisions in life lol haha

#TokyoItinerary Day 1: The collision of crowds and rhythm In the evening, I stepped onto the central street of Shibuya, and before my eyes were the colorful neon lights and the interweaving figures of the crowd. This street is like a silent symphony, with different rhythms and stories at every corner. The red light at Shibuya Crossing comes on and hundreds of people cross the street simultaneously. This orderly and spectacular sight makes people marvel at the unique charm of the city. Walking along the street, you will see a wide variety of shops selling everything from fashion trends to special snacks, all of which showcase Tokyo's diverse culture. I tasted the popular local crepes. The sweet flavor bloomed on the tip of my tongue, adding a touch of warmth to this noisy and lively night. Day 2: Dialogue between Culture and Nature The next morning, I came to Ueno Park, which is like an oasis in the city, accommodating the fusion of humanity and nature. Walking through the shade of the trees, the sun shines through the leaves, casting mottled shadows. The breeze blows gently, and the air is filled with the fragrance of grass and trees. I visited the Tokyo National Museum, admired the treasures of history and art, and felt the profound sense of cultural accumulation. When leaving, I strolled to Shinobazu Pond and watched the ripples on the water and the carps swimming in it, which calmed my mood. The itinerary, which combines both busy and quiet, depicts multi-layered beautiful memories in this city.

I went to the Shibuya branch of Fujiki Shoten at the request of a friend who was visiting Tokyo on a trip. This newly opened shop is located in Shibuya Center Street, a 7-8 minute walk from Shibuya Station, on the second floor of a building at the end of Center Street. The shop has a lively atmosphere, and even though it was a weekday, it was crowded with many customers. The fact that all the seats are table seats is also a point that makes it relaxing. The grilled marbled wagyu beef and Dassai sake lees pizza are brought to the table and then grilled over a burner, so you can enjoy the live feeling unfolding right in front of you. Due to the location, there are many foreign tourists, so it seems like a shop that anyone can use regardless of the scene. 201 Grand Tokyo Shibuya Building, 33-1 Udagawacho, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo 150-0042 16:00-02:00 #0 yen trip January 2025 #Domestic trip #Shibuya

Hidden on the third floor of a building near GU, deep in Shibuya Center Street, this cyberpunk shisha bar/cafe is themed on the world of AKIRA. It's a branch of NORTH VILLAGE. The best time is at night, but they're open during the day too, and the atmosphere is different during the day too. You can sit down pretty much any time, so I recommend it! . . 📍NORTHVILLAGE Shibuya U.D.A RIVER CITY 🗺️Tokyo, Japan 🕑10:00-5:00 💰¥5000 #FuriTabi #Shibuya #Shisha

#FuriTabi While sightseeing in Shibuya, we went to a candy bar. There was no appetizer, but for a 600 yen charge you could eat as many candy as you wanted. Other items on the menu include deep-fried bread and spaghetti Napolitana, which remind me of school lunches. The interior has a retro feel, so be sure to check it out!

The main store is directly managed by a long-established Tsukiji fish shop that has been in business for 150 years in Tsukishima 🙌💓 It is located in Shibuya Center Street and is easily accessible. The first floor is open air and you can see outside, which is nice 🥰‼ ️ It has 180 seats and is a popular monja restaurant in Shibuya that is always full of customers 🙌 I heard that the most popular menu item, "Mentaiko Mochi Monja," is recommended to be topped with cheese, so I had that 🍴🤍✨ Compared to other stores, it was very creamy monja 🥰💓 I thought it would be saltier, so I was surprised when I ate it ‼ ️ If you come to Shibuya, please come and try the creamy mentaiko mochi monja 🙌🤍✨ #Travel with me #Shibuya #ShibuyaGourmet #TsukishimaMonja

Shibuya is now known as Tokyo's downtown, but Center Street is particularly lively here. It's not the national exam site, lol. It's overflowing with foreign tourists, and they're not the kind of people who are familiar with fashion, nor are they knowledgeable about food, but rather the kind of people who are like the world's biggest trend-chasers. There are Japanese people here, but most of them are female duos or couples. There are also people who have come from Harajuku and Omotesando. #CenterStreet #tokyo #MazesobaChops #DIANA #trip
