Every time I take the train to Shinjuku, I always pass by here.

The Noble Café Shū Premium Shinjuku Store
Just a 3-minute walk from Shinjuku Station, nestled amidst the bustling Kabukicho area, lies a serene café where time seems to slow down. The interior exudes elegance, adorned with antique furniture, paintings, and decorative items, creating a luxurious ambiance for a refined experience.
The decor is kind of retro and fancy. Walking in feels like stepping back into the Showa era. The seats are super spacious and comfy—totally different from your average café.

Shigaraki Toen Tanuki Mura
Shigaraki is one of the six oldest kilns in Japan, and has the longest history of any of them. In this small mountain village surrounded by nature, there are many pottery studios and stores selling pottery, and everywhere you go you will be greeted by Shigaraki ware Tanuki.
The shop was pretty dark and a bit dirty inside. A lot of the pottery was covered in dust. I'm not really into handicrafts, but the big tanuki statue at the entrance is definitely worth a photo.

TOKYO SKYTREE(R) TOKYO SKYTREE TOWN(R)
Boasting a height of 634 meters, TOKYO SKYTREE is the world’s tallest free-standing tower which stands in the center of TOKYO SKYTREE TOWN surrounded by tourist facilities. The tower has two observation decks, Tembo Deck at a height of 350 meters and Tembo Galleria at 450 meters.
The night view of Tokyo from here is absolutely charming! There are also plenty of shops and restaurants, so it's super convenient and well-organized.
