Tokyo Disneyland was a place I had been looking forward to visiting for a long time. The moment I entered the park and saw the familiar castle and all the Disney elements, it really felt like stepping into a fairy-tale world. Every corner of the park is great for photos, and the rides, exciting shows, and interactions with favorite characters kept the entire day full of surprises. Although I was a little tired after walking all day, seeing the magical castle and the beautiful nighttime scenery made it all worthwhile. After experiencing it in person, it felt like more than just having fun—it was a day of rediscovering my inner child and left me with very happy and unforgettable travel memories.

Taito Ward Sumida Park
This park in Taito Ward extends along the western bank of the Sumida River. On the other hand, the park that extends along the eastern bank is the Sumida Ward Sumida Park. In this park, which boasts a site of over 10 hectares, many cherry trees are planted centered around the "Sakura Square".
Taito Ward Sumida Park is located along the Sumida River and is a great place in Tokyo for taking a walk, viewing flowers, and enjoying the city scenery. Walking along the riverbank, you can see the Sumida River and Tokyo Skytree complementing each other, making for a beautiful view.
This time, I took a walk through the park in person. Feeling the riverside breeze and watching the boats slowly pass by made everything feel more relaxed. The greenery along the way was very pleasant, and during cherry blossom season, you can enjoy views filled with cherry blossoms, creating a wonderful atmosphere for photos. -

Black Thunder
This chocolate snack is very popular for its affordable price of 40 yen and deliciousness. Cocoa cookie and plain biscuit are coated with chocolate. You can taste the light bitterness of a cocoa cookie matched with the sweetness of chocolate. Crunchy texture and the volume which can fill your stomach lightly pleases you.
I think Black Thunder's biggest appeal is that it's simple and delicious, as well as affordable and easy to carry, making it a great souvenir from Japan. When shared with family and friends, it easily becomes a little snack that everyone reaches for.

San'en-zan Kodo-in Zojoji Temple
Located at the base of Tokyo Tower is Zojoji, an Omotoyama temple of the Jodo sect of Buddhism. Enshrined in Zojoji's Ankokuden Hall is the hidden black image of Buddha worshipped by Tokugawa Ieyasu, the first shogun of the Edo period. Since he won one battle after after another, visiting this temple is said to increase the chance of victory.
Zojoji Temple was originally just another stop on my Tokyo itinerary, but after actually going inside, I unexpectedly grew to really like it. The ancient temple buildings, surrounded by skyscrapers and Tokyo Tower, create a fascinating feeling of crossing between the past and present.
What impressed me most was the peaceful atmosphere inside the temple. Even though bustling Tokyo is just outside, stepping in feels like instantly entering another world. Walking slowly and admiring the architecture also helped calm my mind. -
