How to spend 4 days in Tokyo

Tokyo is a city that assaults the senses in the best possible way. It's a place where ancient traditions meet hyper-modern technology, and where quiet temples sit alongside neon-drenched streets. 📍 Itinerary Overview The focus is on experiencing different aspects of Tokyo: traditional culture, modern pop culture, delicious food, and beautiful scenery. I've tried to leave room for flexibility, because sometimes the best discoveries are made when you wander off the beaten path. 🚩 Sightseeing Route Day 1: Shinjuku Immersion: Start in Shinjuku, experiencing the towering skyscrapers with a free view from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. Day 2: Culture and Tradition: Travel to Asakusa to visit Senso-ji Temple, Tokyo's oldest temple. Then, take a Sumida River cruise for unique city views and arrive in the Tokyo Skytree. Day 3: Pop Culture and Style: Start in Shibuya to brave the famous scramble crossing and check out the trendy shops. Afterwards, move along the Harajuku district with its unique street style and quirky fashion, and end in the Meiji Jingu Shrine a short walk away. Day 4: Markets, Gardens, and Departure: We will start in Tsukiji Outer Market to experience the vibrant fish market scene (get there early!). Then, enjoy the Hamarikyu Gardens for another dose of tranquility. Depending on your flight time, use the remaining time to explore a neighborhood you loved or do some last-minute souvenir shopping. 🏖️ Must-Visit Attractions • Shibuya Crossing: Obvious, but you can't miss it! Find a good vantage point (like the Starbucks in the Tsutaya building) for the full experience. • Senso-ji Temple: A beautiful and historic temple in the heart of Asakusa, a glimpse into traditional Tokyo. • Tokyo Skytree: Offers panoramic views of the city and surrounding landscape. • Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden: A peaceful oasis with different garden styles (English, French, and Japanese). • Tsukiji Outer Market: An amazing sensory experience with countless food stalls and fresh seafood. 🏠 Accommodation 1.Mitsui Garden Hotel Ginza Premier Great view 💡 Tips You can just enter this hotel’s lobby to see the view
