Tokyo Tower
Monday - October 13th 2025
We started our day at our favourite Starbucks that is hidden inside an office
building next to our hotel and so there was always a very quiet and relaxed
atmosphere. For today we planned to see
Tokyo Tower and after
breakfast we were on our way. When we arrived there were hardly any other
visitors and so we enjoyed the amazing views over Tokyo without any crowds.
Next stop was
Azabudai Hills, a very nice and posh neighbourhood with skyscrapers, shopping malls and
parks. There we just strolled through the shops, got egg sandwiches and
checked out the lovely park.

Later we took the metro to Akihabara Electric Town, because I wanted to buy
some retro games for my Game Boy. Of course Akihabara was quite busy, but I
managed to find the retro games store I had already been during our last
visit. The shop had a huge selection of all kinds of retro games, but I just
got a couple of Nintendo Game Boy modules. Since it was already early
afternoon, we decided to find something to eat. So we took the metro to
Asakusa, where we had a late lunch at Ramen Yoroiya. Claudia got ramen soup
and I ordered vegetarian gyoza and we weren't disappointed by our choices. The
food was really delicious.

After our delicious lunch we were on our way to the
Asahi Brewery Headquarter
on the other side of the river. There we wanted to visit the Sky Room bar at
the top of the Asahi building from where guests have a wonderful view over
Tokyo. When we arrived, we had to wait a little bit, but soon we got a table
and enjoyed our beers. Back in Shinjuku we just strolled around and checked
out the huge Godzilla sculpture at the Gracery Hotel. Then we had dinner at
800 Degrees Pizzeria again and before getting some drinks at our favourite
outdoor bar we spent quite some time at Don Quijote to find a suitcase to buy.
After a couple of beers we headed back to the hotel and enjoyed a quiet
evening.
