Akihabara
Wow! Such an incredible place to visit, an absolute must do when in Tokyo. During the day is hectic, I probably would try to avoid after 9am, until it gets to 8pm onwards. It is so beautiful at night and definitely worth coming to the area just to do...

Starbucks Reserve® Roastery Tokyo · 4.5★(10099) · Coffee shop
A magical place, just like being inside a Ghibli film. Every item here is perfectly made, there is no fault. The people that work here are really polite and nice. Prices are good, nothing over the top to be something trademark.

The tallest tower in the World!

Fushimi Inari Taisha · 4.6★(70226) · Shinto shrine
Located in Shibuya, it’s very hard to miss. There’s a giant screen that shows the cat in a few different poses.
The service was good, and drinks + food were what we needed and tasted well. Prices are reasonable.
Good atmosphere from the first floo...
