From appreciating the gorgeous cherry blossoms<\/a>, to island-hopping in Okinawa<\/a>, to skiing in Hokkaido<\/a>, there are a gazillion things to do in Japan. As the capital of the Land of the Rising Sun, Tokyo is a vibrant and culturally rich metropolis; even having done my fair share of big-city travel and having lived in Singapore and Hong Kong, Tokyo did not disappoint. While you may need more than a weekend to take in all the goodness this city has to offer, be sure to check off my favourite things to do in Tokyo below. Buckle up with a sense of adventure, a big appetite, and a love of the unusual and brilliantly quirky!<\/p>\n

Best things to do in Tokyo: A weekend guide<\/h2>\n

1. Cross the Shibuya Crossing<\/h3>\n

How does a mere pedestrian crossing become such a draw card, you ask? Well, with up to 3,000 people crossing at once, in all directions at its busiest times, Shibuya Crossing is definitely a must-see in Tokyo. With massive video screens (some even with 3-D ads towering above them), this busiest crossing in Japan, and possibly in the world, is surreal to witness in action. To gain a fun perspective, try experiencing Shibuya Crossing by immersing yourself in the chaos of the street, before looking down on the hoards from above. We stayed at Shibuya Excel Hotel Tokyu<\/a> where we got a cracking view of Shibuya Crossing from inside the Hotel lift, adding another dimension to the experience.<\/p>\n

2. Go vintage shopping on Cat Street<\/h3>\n

You’d certainly know of the Cat Street<\/a> in Hong Kong, but did you know there’s also a Cat Street in the heart of Tokyo? Running between Harajuku and Shibuya, the mostly pedestrian alley is a haven for high-end fashion, streetwear, sportswear, and vintage accessories. Whether you’re a fan of thrifting or just want to nab a bargain, don’t miss out on this shopping mecca. My personal pick is Ragtag<\/a>. Known for its high-end brands, this isn’t your average vintage store. I managed to pick up a suede Golden Goose biker jacket with just under HK$800!<\/p>\n

3. Head to Harajuku<\/h3>\n

At the end of Cat Street, you’ll find yourself in Harajuku, a large neighbourhood which has long been the home to cutting-edge fashion. The fashion style here is all about the sense of community and freedom of expression, and of course, fun. We loved walking down Takeshita Street, as it’s the epicentre of colour, fun, and Japanese youth culture. From cotton candy shops and costume stores, to crepe cafes and souvenir shops, nothing is out of place on Takeshita Dori.<\/p>\n

4. Visit the Senso-ji<\/h3>\n

Arrive early in the morning to soak up the zen at Senso-ji, one of Tokyo’s most famous temples. Some visitors make use of large cauldron in front of the temple, where incense is burned for good health. You can also check out the beautiful, five-story pagoda on the left.<\/p>\n

5. Get jaw-dropped at TeamLab Planets Tokyo<\/h3>\n
\"teamlab

I don’t normally have art exhibitions on my list of top things to do, but TeamLab Planets<\/a> is a full-on, mind-blowing sensory experience. From digital fish that turn into flowers, to interactive soundscapes to light mazes, this is a firm must-see, must-do experience in Tokyo.<\/p>\n

6. Pop by the Tsukiji Fish Market<\/h3>\n

I love the action, smells, and intensity of wet markets, and a seafood market just makes it all the more appealing. The quality of the sashimi here is unbeatable, and dishes only start at about HK$55. If you’re a foodie, this is one of the essential places to visit in Tokyo.<\/p>\n

7. Go-kart in actual traffic!<\/h3>\n

Ever wanted to try Mario Kart IRL? This is your chance! Only in Tokyo can you rent a kart<\/a> and do a self-drive experience \u2013 even including a costume of your favourite superhero or anime character. Just make sure you have your International Driving Permit before you leave home.<\/p>\n

8. Relax in Yoyogi Park<\/h3>\n

Covering a vast 134 acres in Shibuya, Yoyogi Park is often packed with buskers and picnickers. Need a break from all the walking and sightseeing? Head to the northern side for grassy lawns and much-needed shade from Japanese Zelkova trees. Spot impromptu badminton teams swinging their racquets, a drum circle tapping away, or amateur dancers following along to the beat.<\/p>\n

9. Watch a sumo tournament<\/h3>\n

Catching a sumo tournament in Tokyo is all about timing, since only three Grand Sumo Tournaments take place in Tokyo at Ryogoku Kokugikan<\/a>. While tamari seats are hard to score, box seats are your next best bet to join the likes of over 11,000 fans in the venue, and watch the traditional Japanese sport up close.<\/p>\n

10. Go for more vintage shopping in Shimokitazawa<\/h3>\n

So, you might know by now that vintage shopping in Tokyo is a thing… And if this is your <\/em>thing, the selection of vintage shops in the little neighbourhood of Shimokitazawa might just knock your socks off. If cafe- and restaurant-hopping is on your list of things to do in Tokyo, be sure to sift through the variety of shops here. Sip on a coffee, and bask in the vibes.<\/p>\n

11. Ride to the top of Tokyo Skytree<\/h3>\n

Though tickets aren’t cheap, Tokyo Skytree provides a stunning 360-degree view of the whole city. Those of you who love a fast elevator ride and a thrilling view from the tallest tower in the world will need to put this on your list of things to do in Tokyo.<\/p>\n

12. Visit Ueno Park during cherry blossom season<\/h3>\n

From a museum to a zoo, to historical monuments, the massive Ueno Park houses a number of attractions. You can easily spend a day here, especially during spring when sakura blooms across the park. Cameras out!<\/p>\n

13. Go on a Tokyo food tour<\/h3>\n

If you want to gain first-hand insight into the culture behind Japanese food, then I highly recommend going on a Tokyo food tour. Some tours<\/a> are short \u2013 perfect for a meal and a stroll; whereas another tour operator<\/a> may offer longer tours that go up to eight hours \u2013 ideal for those who prefer others to do the planning.<\/p>\n

14. Shop at Uniqlo<\/h3>\n

Who doesn’t have a piece (or two) of Uniqlo in their wardrobe? This Japanese casual wear brand has a massive global following, credits to its quality, durability, and affordability. From the in-store experience to the range of items on offer, visiting a Uniqlo store in Tokyo is a treat. We loved the branch in Shinjuku the best.<\/p>\n

15. Have fun in Tokyo Disneyland<\/h3>\n

For those travelling with little humans, Tokyo Disneyland has got to make the list of best things to do in Tokyo. With a whopping 110 acres for family fun, including the much loved Tomorrowland and Adventureland, this theme park attraction is undoubtedly the Happiest Place on Earth.<\/p>\n

16. Get a cuteness overload at a hedgehog cafe<\/h3>\n

If you have a weakness for all things cute, you’ll enjoy getting up close and personal with the spiky little fellas at a hedgehog cafe<\/a>. Meeting the passionate cafe staff who loved tending for the animals (with gloves on, of course!) was pretty special for us, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
