Must-see illumination spots in Tokyo - Best 3
In winter, the streets of Tokyo turn into a winter wonderland of lights. The beautiful LED decorations that light up trees and buildings are called illuminations. No need to say that they are popular dating spots.
Today, I will introduce my best 3 Tokyo Illumination Spots!
◆ ◆ ◆
◆ ◆ Tokyo Michiterasu
Screens with sparkling light projections line the street facing the historic red brick building of Tokyo Station. The beautiful images represent the elements fire, water, and wind. It's a modern version of the Japanese winter illuminations. Of course, the trees are decorated, too. The glow of the tree illuminations that wraps around Gyoko street turns the whole area into an ocean of lights with the station building floating on top of it.
Follow the lights and walk towards Tokyo Station. Images of a swirling light flash are projected on the Marunouchi side of Tokyo station that gracefully emerges from the shadows of the night. The illuminations around Tokyo Station are a brilliant fusion of OLD & NEW you shouldn't miss!
◆ ◆ Marunouchi Illumination
Over 200 trees line Marunouchi-Naka-Dori Street which is a popular luxury brand shopping street close to Tokyo Station. Over 1 million LED lights that come in an original color called champagne gold elegantly color the whole area. Its warm light somehow feels like winter in Scandinavia - maybe that's because of the traditional vibe of the lights that resemble candles. And let's be honest. Window-shopping while watching the illuminations? Sign me up!
◆ ◆ WHITE KITTE
The shopping facility KITTE is the former site of the Tokyo Central Post Office. Here, a 14.5 m high (real) Christmas tree - the largest in Japan - awaits you indoors at the center hall of the building. The tree is covered with pure white snow with decorations that change their colors according to the music every 30 minutes.
For the 2018/2019 event, the program is called Precious Ver.. It features a light installation that looks like snow falling from the sky. Like every year, it's a must-see!
◆ ◆ ◆
The three illumination venues I introduced in this article are all in walking distance. So put on your winter coat and off you go! Have fun exploring Tokyo's fantastic winter illuminations!

Tokyo 4K - Driving Downtown - Japan 東京 日本
Tuesday afternoon drive in in the heart of central Tokyo (downtown as we call it in America). Video highlights include Ginza's main street, the anime of Akihabara, the Ueno Park area, the Tokyo Dome and its amusement park, and Tokyo's busiest train station Tokyo Station (over 3,000 trains per day). The two main specific districts are Chiyoda (The seat of Japanese power (both political and economic) that includes the Imperial Palace, the Ministries near Kasumigaseki, the Parliament in Nagatacho, the corporate headquarters of Marunouchi, and the electronics mecca of Akihabara) and Chuo (known for the famed department stores of Ginza and the outer market of Tsukiji.) Starting Point: . - My new favorite website!

The urban area houses the seat of the Emperor of Japan, of the Japanese government and of the National Diet. Tokyo is often referred to as a city but is officially known and governed as a metropolitan prefecture, which differs from and combines elements of a city and a prefecture, a characteristic unique to Tokyo.
The prefecture is part of the world's most populous metropolitan area called the Greater Tokyo Area with over 40 million people and the world's largest urban agglomeration economy. The 23 Special Wards of Tokyo were formerly Tokyo City.

Tokyo ranks first in the Global Economic Power Index and third in the Global Cities Index. The GaWC's 2018 inventory classified Tokyo as an alpha+ world city – and as of 2014 TripAdvisor's World City Survey ranked Tokyo first in its Best overall experience category (the city also ranked first in the following categories: helpfulness of locals, nightlife, shopping, local public transportation and cleanliness of streets).

Tokyo now and then - Going on a time trip!
Tokyo is a megacity where high-rise buildings rise up in the blink of an eye, new restaurants and cafés are opening every day...everything keeps changing at a tremendous speed.
On the other hand, old historical buildings are also taken care of and well preserved.
Why don't you go on a stroll through the city while touching the past, present, and future of Tokyo!
Tokyo station was built in 1914 at the former site of a samurai mansion.
When walking toward the Yurakucho station next to Tokyo station, you will see the beautiful red brick viaduct. In this area, the railway tracks are elevated by brick arches. This viaduct has been supporting Japan's railway for over 100 years. If you are a railway fan, I recommend you to visit the free observation deck of the shopping mall KITTE nearby Tokyo station. From the observation deck, you can see the Shinkansen bullet train and local trains constantly departing and arriving.
The Imperial Palace is where the Japanese emperor lives. Therefore, you can't go inside, but you can visit the gardens, the gates and the stone walls surrounding the Imperial Palace for free.
If you compare different stonewalls, you will notice that the stone patterns vary from place to place. That is because the technology evolved with the times. Since Edo Castle that was originally built in 1457, different techniques were used each time the castle was rebuilt or expanded.
Kitanomaru Park is a vast park where you can enjoy seasonal plants and flowers and relax in nature. Especially, the autumn leaves from the end of November to the beginning of December every year are very beautiful. In the park, there is also the Museum of Modern Art and Science - there is enough to see to spend all day just in the park. In addition, Chidorigafuchi near to the park is known as one of the most beautiful cherry blossom viewing spots in Tokyo. There is also a boat rental where you and your friends can rent rowing boats throughout the year.
The most evolving city in Tokyo is Akihabara.
Until a couple of years ago, Akihabara was known as being an electric town, attracting fans of radio and computers. However, recently the quarter has become a sanctuary for anime, manga and video games. Countless shops dedicated to spreading the moe culture as well as game centers, maid cafes etc. await you there.
If you visit Akihabara, you should stop by at Kanda Myojin shrine, that is close by.
Kanda Myojin is very open to anime, manga and other pop cultures. Therefore, manga and game fans write their wishes and support messages for their favorite groups or voice actors on small wooden boards (ema) and hang them on a special frame at the shrine.
Tokyo is a city where old and new blend into another without any contradiction.
Exploring the city on foot is always a great idea, so why don't you enjoy a time trip watching the past, present, and future of this city!

Walking in Tokyo - Otemachi Station to Tokyo Station - Late afternoon sunset walk - 4K 60 FPS
In this short walk, I'll take you from Otemachi Station, one of the major hubs in the business district of Marunouchi in central Tokyo, to JR Tokyo Station, perhaps the most beautiful train station in all of Japan.
The area in front of Tokyo Station was recently redesigned and now houses a big plaza where people can meet and enjoy the sunset like they were doing when I filmed this walk.
Open spaces and squares like this are actually quite rare in central Tokyo, so I'm very happy they managed to squeeze one in at such a prime location in downtown Tokyo.
Apologies for the wind noise that appears at some times in this video, I didn't actually plan to film this day, but the late afternoon sunlight was so beautiful I decided to do it anyway. Unfortunately, my proper mic was left home...
This was filmed on a weekend in August 2019

Ginza
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ginza (銀座) is a district of Chūō, Tokyo, located south of Yaesu and Kyōbashi, west of Tsukiji, east of Yūrakuchō and Uchisaiwaichō, and north of Shinbashi.
It is known as an upscale area of Tokyo with numerous department stores, boutiques, restaurants and coffeehouses. Ginza is recognized as one of the most luxurious shopping districts in the world. Many upscale fashion clothing flagship stores are located here, being also recognized as having the highest concentration of western shops in Tokyo. Prominent are Chanel, Dior, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton.
Flagship electronic retail stores like the Sony showroom and the Apple Store are also here.
History
Ginza is named after the silver-coin mint established there in 1612 during the Edo period.
After the Tsukiji area burnt to the ground in 1872, the Meiji government designated the Ginza area as model of modernisation. The government planned the construction of fireproof brick buildings, and larger, better streets connecting the Shimbashi Station and the foreign concession in Tsukiji, as well as to important government buildings. Designs for the area were provided by the Irish-born architect Thomas Waters; the Bureau of Construction of the Ministry of Finance was in charge of construction. In the following year, a Western-style shopping promenade on the street from the Shinbashi bridge to the Kyōbashi bridge in the southwestern part of Chūō with two- and three-story Georgian brick buildings was completed.
Bricktown buildings were initially offered for sale, later they were leased, but the high rent meant that many remained unoccupied. Nevertheless, the area flourished as a symbol of civilisation and enlightenment, thanks to the presence of newspapers and magazine companies, who led the trends of the day. The area was also known for its window displays, an example of modern marketing techniques.
Most of these European-style buildings disappeared, but some older buildings still remain, most famously the Wakō building with the now-iconic Hattori Clock Tower. The building and clock tower were originally built by Kintarō Hattori, the founder of Seiko.
Its recent history has seen it as a promiment outpost of western luxury shops. Ginza is a popular destination on weekends, when the main north-south artery is closed to traffic. The traffic blockade began in the 1960s under governor Ryokichi Minobe.
Visit an oasis in the city! Hibiya Park - a park full of fun events
The scenery of the four seasons seen in Hibiya Park - located in the center of Tokyo - is astonishing. Beginning with the cherry blossoms in spring, the dark green of the trees in summer and the colorful autumn leaves invite visitors on a refreshing stroll through the park.
Also, there are many fun events throughout the year at Hibiya Park. Don't miss this energetic oasis!
Hibiya Park is Japan's first western-style park. This modern park opened in 1903. Its trademark is the big fountain. With 161,636 square meters, Hibiya Park is quite large. The atmosphere differs depending on the area of the park - so it is highly recommended to stroll through various areas! Enjoy the flowers and greenery of every season including western-style roses, Japanese style cherry blossoms, and the pretty yellow ginkgo leaves. Also, the park offers a tennis court and a famous restaurant called Matsumotoro.
A lot of fun events take place at Hibiya Park. In summer, Bon Odori, a traditional Japanese dance festival, is held. Locals and foreigners dance to the nostalgic music around the big fountain. Watching people wearing their colorful yukata (summer kimonos) and listening to the drum players at the yagura stage make this event unforgettable. There are many different dances at a Bon-Dance, but the dances with their repetitive moves are easy to learn. Just try to imitate the people surrounding you. It is one of the largest Bon-Dances in Tokyo. Anyone can join and participate, so please come and dance with us!
At Hibiya Park, music and food events are also held. In addition to a beer festival, popular local gourmet (specialties from different regions throughout Japan) events also take place from time to time. Perfect if you want to try delicious dishes you have never seen before.
From late November to early December, Hibiya Park will turn into a sea of beautiful autumn leaves. Especially the area around kumogata-ike pond (the cloud-shaped pond) is amazing. The cute bridge and the crane-shaped fountain there are beautiful photo spots.
Hibiya Park is a wonderful park not only for relaxing but also for joining fun events. It's a great place to visit - so please come by!

Tokyo walk - Shin Okubo (新大久保) - 4K
In this video we’ll show you Shin Okubo (新大久保), Tokyo.
Shin Okubo is said to be a Korean town in Tokyo. Located within walking distance from Shinjuku Station, there are plenty of places to enjoy Korean food, Korean cosmetics and photogenic sweets. There are many young people in Japan who love Korean culture, and this place is particularly crowded on weekends. Many people line up in front of the restaurants along the street, and even if you try to walk on the main street, you can't go forward. “Shin-Okubo” is a place where you can feel like Korean while staying in Japan. In recent years, a Korean wave boom has caused many Korean customers to visit every day.
