Sometimes, especially on weekends, don’t you feel like having a late breakfast – in other words, brunch?
In Japan, the concept of “brunch” is still new. But since Japanese people tend to always aim for 100% in every field, we now have some wonderful brunch cafes in the Roppongi and Azabu area. Let me introduce three of our top choices!
Do you like karaoke?
As you might know, karaoke was invented in Japan. Therefore, here in Japan, karaoke keeps evolving and is becoming even more fun. It’s like a national sport you shouldn’t miss during your stay in Japan. In this article, we will introduce a unique karaoke bar/restaurant in Roppongi!
The Shinagawa area including Shinagawa Station – which is the access point to Haneda Airport and also one of the two Shinkansen stations – is the town of the beginning and the end of journeys. Since Shinagawa has many hotels for travelers there are many foreign tourists who stay at Shinagawa. But can you go out and have fun? What should you do in the Shinagawa area? In this article, I will introduce some of Shinagawa’s “fun spots” for travelers. So, let’s go!
Roppongi in Tokyo is famous for being a city of modern art. So if you want to experience the “now” of the Japanese art scene, you should go to Roppongi! First of all, there is the “Roppongi Art Triangle” (or “Art Triangle Roppongi”), consisting of three cutting-edge art museums, but there is also a lot of representative modern architecture. Including places such as Roppongi Hills, which looks like a spaceship out of an SF movie that landed in the middle of the city. We went to an art exhibition at the Mori Art Museum that combines these two elements: art and architecture.
Japan is famous for its summer festivals including beautiful fireworks. In order to watch the “Tokyo Hanabi Taisai EDOMODE” fireworks, which was held at Tokyo Bay, we decided to go on a cruise. Fireworks seen from the ground are beautiful – but how nice must it be to watch it from the sea? We had to check that out! And I am glad we did so. The Tokyo Bay Fireworks Cruise turned out to be a once in a lifetime experience!
