Walk In Tokyo

Under the clear sky, Tokyo Tower feels straight out of an anime. Coming out of Akabanebashi Station (E21), I caught my first glimpse of Tokyo Tower bit by bit. I found a quiet corner and gazed at the interwoven red, orange, and white lights. I’ve heard there’s a romantic saying about Tokyo Tower: “No matter where you are, as long as you look up, you’ll see me.”

I finally stepped into Miyazaki’s summer, into Izu, enchanted by that refreshing matcha green. This is also a filming location for the anime “Your Name.” Blue skies, grassy fields, small towns, and cable cars make it feel like living inside an anime.

At the foot of the mountain is the Cactus Zoo, where animals roam semi-free. The capybara is the zoo’s superstar—super calm and always happy to be petted.

Tower Records is the largest record store in Asia, spanning eight floors, each with its own style and genre: J-Pop, K-Pop, Western pop, hip-hop, anime soundtracks, game music, jazz, classical, and more. The 7th floor is dedicated to vintage records, covering City Pop, Jazz, Funk, Soul, and hard rock. While there aren’t many rare finds, the selection is comprehensive, and there are occasional surprises. Spend over 5,000 yen and you can even get a tax refund.

The Pinnacle of Tokyo Nightlife: Shinjuku Kabukicho, the City That Never Sleeps

The whole street seems bathed in neon, a riot of lights and colors, with flashing signs and surging crowds everywhere you look. I finally understood why Japan is called the “Land of Neon.” The night here never ends—bars, clubs, and theaters buzz with life until dawn, and even the air feels tipsy.

The intricate veins of the city

The lush greenery beneath a transparent umbrella

The blue hour glowing with neon

The smoky, lively izakayas

That’s Tokyo.

晴空下的东京塔超有动漫感，地铁赤羽桥站E21出来，初次与东京塔一点点的相见，找一处角落，凝望着那红、橙和白交织的光彩。听说东京塔隐含了一句浪漫的话“无论你在哪里只要一抬头 就能看见我”

终于走进了宫崎骏的夏天-伊豆，醉心于这抹心旷神怡的抹茶色，也是《你的名字》动漫取景地。蓝天、草地、小镇、缆车像活在动漫里。

山下的仙人掌动物园是半散养模式，能近距离接触动物。卡皮巴拉是动物园最火的大明星，情绪真的超稳定，可以随便摸

东京夜生活天花板 新宿歌舞伎町不夜城

整条街仿佛被霓虹浸透，灯红酒绿，光影交织，目之所及皆是闪烁的招牌与涌动的人潮。终于明白“霓虹国”这称号的由来。这里的夜没有尽头，酒吧、俱乐部、剧场通宵喧嚣，连空气都裹着微醺的气息。

交纵复杂的城市脉络

透明伞下的满目绿意

辉映霓虹的blue hour

居酒屋里的烟火气

That’s Tokyo
