om te stellen dat Tokyo groot is, zou een groot understatement zijn. De Japanse financiering is een van de grootste ter wereld zowel per landoppervlak als bevolking, iets dat behoorlijk overweldigend duidelijk wordt als je het van bovenaf ziet. Vanuit het observatiedek van de Tokyo Skytree lijkt de stad uitgestrekt te zijn en zijn betonnen armen in alle richtingen naar de horizon te strekken. We zijn eerder meerdere keren gegaan, en tot nu toe zijn er nog steeds zo veel delen van de stad die we nog moeten verkennen.
Gelukkig is Tokyo eveneens thuis in een van ‘s werelds vele uitgestrekte evenals vele uitstekende treinnetwerken, die werken op echte Japanse mode: efficiënt, georganiseerd, evenals op tijd. Het maakt niet uit hoe belangrijk of precies hoe uitgebreid Tokyo is, om te gaan, hoeft niet stressvol te zijn. Zolang er een treinstation in de buurt van je bestemming is – net zo goed als er meestal is – is het nooit echt zo ver.

Inzicht in het treinsysteem van Tokyo
Het uitgebreide treinsysteem van Tokyo wordt beheerd door meer dan een veel operators, maar in deze reisroute zullen we alleen de treinlijnen gebruiken, evenals de tramlijn die extreem ongebruikelijk is in de stad. De treinlijnen worden beheerd door Toei Transportation en Tokyo Metro. Hoewel afzonderlijke entiteiten, werken deze twee in uitstekende synergie. Elk van hen bedient verschillende regels die zo aan elkaar zijn gekoppeld, het is uitstekend precies hoe de Japanners het laten werken als ze het als een uurwerk doen. Vaak hoeft u de poorten niet te verlaten en nieuwe tickets te kopen, zelfs niet als u overstapt van de treinlijn van de teen naar de metrolijn van Tokyo. (Er zijn echter situaties wanneer u dat doet.) Treinlijnen worden gemarkeerd met een toegewezen letter in een kleurgecodeerde cirkel. Het merkteken van de Toei Oedo -lijn is bijvoorbeeld een E in een magenta -cirkel, terwijl het merkteken van de teenei Asakusa -lijn de letter A is in een verhoogde roze cirkel. Houd deze tekens en de logo’s van de bedrijven in gedachten, omdat dit precies is hoe u ze zult ontdekken.
We zijn net uit nog een Tokyo -reis verschenen, maar deze keer hebben we onszelf uitgedaagd als we in twee dagen de essentiële attracties van de stad zouden kunnen zien, waaronder de typische menigte favorieten en die van de gebaande paden met alleen de trein evenals de tram. Na de reis konden we het vinden met dit tweedaagse reisschema, dat ideaal is voor first-timers die het allerbeste willen zien dat de stad echter in een beperkte tijd te bieden heeft. Als je nog veel meer dagen blijft, kun je dit ook gebruiken als onderdeel van een groter reisschema.
Trouwens, als je een visuele gids kiest, hebben we ook een videoversie van dit bericht! Inspecteer het hieronder:

Het uitstekende van het Tokyo -treinticket is: u moet niet in de herfst in de rij om een ticket te kopen telkens wanneer u de metro neemt. Dus niet alleen bespaart u geld, u bespaart ook veel tijd! uiterst handig. Aangezien dit een tweedaagse route is, gebruiken we het ticket van 48 uur.

Ameyoko is a market street where you can shop for practically anything you can believe of. A broad range of products are offered here: bags, clothes, shoes, accessories, spices, fish.

Hours open: 9:00am to 5:00pm, everyday (except December 29-January 1)
Tokyo’s map is shaded by a number of parks as well as gardens, however the most well-known ones can get as well congested particularly in top season. This is why Hamarikyu gardens was so attractive to us: it stays the pocket of peace that it has always been, even in the middle of the busy metropolis.
Facing Tokyo Bay, Hamarikyu gardens utilized to be where the vacation home of the Tokugawa clan stood back in the day. Today, it is a landscaped public garden decorated by trees surrounding a few ponds. At the center of the largest pond stands a teahouse, where you can delight in Japanese tea as well as sweets.

Until 2018, the inner section of the Tsukiji Market was where Tokyo’s well-known fish auction happens. It was the largest seafood market in the city. The primary inner operation has because been transferred to Toyosu, however the outer market stays to life as well as kicking. a number of seafood restaurants as well as sushi bars continue to draw tourists from around the world.
This is likewise your lunch stop for today. You can pick any type of location that you like. On our last trip, we chose to try Tsukiji Itadori Market, a seafood restaurant that is widely known for their kaisendon, a bowl of rice topped with assorted sashimi. There are over 15 bowls to select from, including seared choices if you’re not a fan of raw fish. The three best-sellers are the kaisen-don (Bowl 1, ¥1480), jo kaisen-don (bowl 2), as well as gouka itadori don.
I chose to purchase Jo kaisen-don, which is a much more premium version of their signature kaisen-don. The bowl included slices of medium fatty tuna, salmon, as well as octopus among others. however the primary reason I selected this was the uni (sea urchin). among other toppings were salmon roe, scallop, as well as a lovely shrimp at the extremely center.
Vins was much more adventurous as well as let the chef choose the pieces on his bowl when he purchased Omakase sanchoku-don (Bowl 5). Omakase implies “to leave it as much as you,” as well as sanchoku implies “straight from the source.” He was quite pleased with the outcome.
After a satisfying meal, we explored the rest of the outer market to inspect out what else we might delight in as we made our method to Tsukijishijo Station. From there, we took the Toei Oedo Line to Tsukishima as well as changed to Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line to Toyosu.
Stop 6: TeamLab Planets

We’ve always wished to experience teamLab because we very first chanced upon a viral video on Facebook. like the other incarnations, teamLab Planets is a digital art museum that tickles your senses. It’s body immersive so you can really interact with the installations. Not to be confused with teamLab Borderless (which has much more zones), teamLab Planets has only seven sections spanning over 10,000 square meters, which implies much more area to relocation around. We were rather surprised, too. We expected to see a space full of visitors, however it wasn’t as congested as I imagined.
One thing you requirement to understand about teamLab Planets is that you will have to take off your shoes before entering since you will be wading in warm water at the extremely beginning as well as it gets knee-deep in some areas. wear something knee-length or at least something you can roll as much as the knees. The walls as well as even floors are made from mirrors, so make sure you don’t wear short skirts.
But all these bit preparations are worth it. The exhibits are so amazing, I had to hold my jaws to keep them from falling.
After being treated to the sensory treat that was teamLab Planets, trace your steps back to Tsukishima station as well as switch to Toei Oedo Line to Tochomae Station.
Stop 7: Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building

View from Tokyo Metropolitan government Building
No, we’re not right here to do an errand.

From right here you can see the Tokyo Tower as well as the Tokyo SkyTree! You can even see Mt. Fuji on a remove day.
If you can make it before sunset, that would be very since you’ll get to delight in the view in daytime, at twilight, as well as at night!

Etens tijd! Tokyo has a few of the most eccentric as well as in some cases downright unusual dining locations like house maid cafés as well as robot restaurants. This time, though, we were able to try a restaurant run by ninjas!
Ninja Shinjuku is one of the numerous ninja-themed restaurants across the city. As expected, there were a great deal of techniques as the food was served. The meal likewise ended with a wildly entertaining as well as outstanding “magic” show that showed off the ninja master’s sleight-of-hand skills. however the most unexpected part of the evening was the food: it was surprisingly good. You see, many home entertainment restaurants provide the products as far as home entertainment is concerned, however falls short when it concerns the food. however each serving throughout our 6-course meal was delicious, from the amuse-bouche
down to the dessert. All the smoke as well as mirrors were just a bonus offer for me.
A common meal costs ¥4000. If that’s over your budget, you can select one more restaurant in Shinjuku area. You’ll never run out of choices here!
With that, DAY 1 concerns a close. From here, you can travel back to your hotel. If you’re staying near Ueno-okachimachi, you can just take the Toei Oedo Line again. If your hotel is better to a Toei Shinjuku Line Station, you may likewise walk to Shinjuku station instead.
