Tokyo Trip Day 1
Itinerary
1. Shibuya Parco
Shibuya Parco is a hotspot where you can experience the latest trends. Packed with clothing, accessories, and unique items, it’s a feast for the eyes. Especially popular among the younger crowd, it features numerous fashion brands and goods stores, making it a must-visit for shopping enthusiasts. Don’t miss the Nintendo Tokyo and Pokémon Center on the 6th floor! At the Pokémon Center, you can even customize a T-shirt with your favorite Pokémon.
2. Shibuya Scramble Crossing
A must-see for travelers, Shibuya Scramble Crossing is a bustling spot where tens of thousands of people pass through daily. You can feel the unique energy among the crowd. At night, the neon lights add a vibrant touch, making it perfect for enjoying the dazzling scenery.
3. Shibuya Scramble Square
Connected to the Scramble Crossing, Shibuya Scramble Square is one of Tokyo’s tallest buildings, offering top-notch shopping and stunning views. The rooftop observation deck, Shibuya Sky, provides panoramic views of Tokyo and, on clear days, even Mount Fuji! 🏙️ (✔ Be sure to check and reserve in advance!) Inside the building, you’ll find a variety of restaurants and brand stores, making it a great spot for both shopping and dining.
▶ Dinner: Tentora on the 13th floor of Shibuya Scramble Square 🍤
Tentora specializes in crispy and flavorful tendon (tempura rice bowl). The basic tendon was incredibly crispy and delicious! Initially, I planned to visit Moheji (a monjayaki specialty restaurant) on the 12th floor, but the long wait led me to Tentora instead. (For Moheji, I recommend visiting right at opening time or when you have plenty of time to spare.)
4. Shibuya Miyashita Park
Before heading back to the hotel, I stopped by Shibuya Miyashita Park for a stroll and to aid digestion. The rooftop park and the building’s restaurants and cafes make it a great spot for dining and a relaxing walk afterward.
