if you're looking for what to do in
Tokyo you're in the right place because
in this video I'm gonna show you how to
make the best out of one day in Tokyo
we're starting our morning at skeezy
fish market if you want to you could get
up before dawn and check out the auction
but we don't want to be sleepy
throughout the day so we're starting at
8 o'clock instead it's so cool it's
right behind the fish market look at
this place it's a very very reasonable
price in all it's key to market let's go
inside and check it out today we're
gonna have a fresh sashimi bowl for
breakfast at tanah Ichi
I ordered tuna salmon and Negi toto and
Maiko got the lady's Bowl and a side of
Oni alright let's try the first place
super fresh alright let's walk around
Joe guy market there are so many food
stands here so don't fill up your
stomach too much at breakfast but they
even have shoe money Tsukiji market sure
has a long history but you could tell by
the hall the old school buildings so
yeah this is a very very old fish market
but there's actually a new building that
was just built which has a lot of stores
restaurants and it's like you can go up
to the third floor
pretty cool place now let's move on to
the Imperial Palace take you be a line
and transfer at kiya bacio station to
the tozai line and get off at Otemachi
station which is the closest station to
the imperial palace tour starting spot
be sure to arrive 10 to 15 minutes early
because the tour starts at 10 just
behind me this is where they have the
tourist they have them only on every day
from 9:30 to one o'clock that lasts
about two hours and they take the first
300 people first come first serve behind
me you can see there's like this
beautiful park kind of tree grass area
unfortunately you can't actually go
inside you just have to like you because
it's all fenced off the imperial palace
grounds are so big check out all this
space around me so much space out here I
love it
it's perfect
and the bridge is pretty cool to look at
so this is cool we're actually walking
through psycho da da moon gate it's like
they actually had a war here and if you
just look right behind me right there
this is where they have cherry blossoms
doing trade blossom season it's so
beautiful definitely check it out if
you're also going for a run this is
where the runners pass next walk about
seven eight minutes and check out Tokyo
Station we just made it to Tokyo Station
it's pretty central here and Tokyo
obviously a lot of bullet trains or
Shinkansen roll through here they've
renovated the facade a few years ago so
it's pretty new yeah it doesn't even
look like Japan sometimes I don't get it
and it's just right next to the Imperial
Palace which is pretty cool as you can
see right behind me is Tokyo Station all
right there and if I just flip this way
just down this road is the Imperial
Palace so close now we're moving onto an
addition but before that let's check out
what we can find inside of Tokyo Station
the Shinkansen leaves from here so there
are countless souvenir shops and bento
stores
this right behind me they're just really
really cool Mentos at this place I had
definitely took it out it again
now let's have lunch and snack it amia
yokocho AKA i'm a yokel as locals call
it so this is like Tokyo's version of
like a street market they have like
stores here that's a relatively
inexpensive goods like t-shirts and
clothing patch but you can also have
like Street Market food at a fair like
market price
[Music]
[Music]
this is like very similar to what we
found in put them on you know Sokka make
food but they're just not a lot of the
installs it's like a one-time-only kind
of thing
so many restaurants here that you can
eat outside and like order food pretty
friggin cool geeky gotta really
surprised us is that there's a lot of
Chinese food sauce here it's amazing we
got chicken pig ears and even soup food
is very very affordable
if you come to Wayne oh you might want
to set aside some stomach or not maybe
Japanese food there's some Chinese food
you have some other foreign food is
wrong
it's stored here when I first came to
Japan actually didn't have a lot of
money so I would come here to buy
clothes everything is like a thousand
yen not everything but like like piles
of like clothes for a thousand yen I
would go to my host I'm like hey where
you going like I'm going away now I
gotta buy some clothes this is where I
would go to buy clothes those were the
good old days no longer the days but
everything comes back in a circle next
we're gonna check out Tokyo Skytree take
Ginza line to a sock so station and
transfer it to the tobu Skytree line so
I just got to Tokyo Skytree since it's
so new it's more of like a shopping mall
area there's lots of new stores around
it's right behind me there's like an
eatery and a sizzler really like it and
then let's go walk through this way for
first time travelers it might be easy to
take a shuttle bus from away no station
a sucks a is on the way so if you're
interested in towers you can go there
instead you can check out my socks a
video to see what it's like
so as you can see behind me there's
actually a cool place for kids to play
in the fountain on a hot summer's day
what else can you ask for these kids are
loving it look how close we are to Sky
Tree look at their clothes you are it's
playing Tokyo Skytree is like one of the
biggest towers in all the world it's
enough that this is a very very new
building with a lot of new shop it's
perfect for tourists that really want to
do the shopping they have close to like
deserts that you can buy for souvenirs
like a one-stop shop and you can go all
the way top country and get a great view
lots of restaurants as well so next
we're gonna check out Meiji Jingu shrine
Meiji Jingu shrine open our is different
from month to month depending on the
sunrise and sunset time winter hours are
usually short so be sure to check out
the website so this is meiji jingu
shrine as you can see behind me there's
a lot of people walking i don't want to
go during the week do you hear the crazy
loud cicadas in the background that's
the sound of a Japanese summer I love it
but in other seasons you'll only hear
the peaceful sound of trees so as you
can see it's very very green here and
one thing though you need to be careful
of is when you're walking here it's
quite a long walk from the entrance all
the way to the shrine so you're gonna
want to make sure to have the proper
walking shoes you don't want to have any
keels or anything like that because
you're gonna get really really tired but
look at how green it is it's like so
amazing over here it's so nice also if
you want to know how to properly shrine
or how to shrine here in Japan check out
this video if you want to know more on
how you should behave
manners of what you're supposed to do in
a shrine so on your way you're gonna
pass these things they look kind of like
crumbs or something like those taiko
drums but in fact there barrels of sake
made out of straw I know it's something
to note hope you enjoy so we're
approaching the shrine or getting a
little bit closer now but it looks like
there's actually a fork in the road let
me show you so in this situation what
you're gonna want to do is take a left
and follow the gate does that will
actually go in a full circle and this is
actually the exit over here so let's go
that way
[Music]
this is the Tunisia before you go in
it's very respectful if you wash your
hands rinse your mouth
remember not to drink it
[Music]
so at the time of this filming brian is
actually under construction you'll see
kind of like a tarp over the shrine
itself may not be too interesting but
the construction is set to finish on
this date I think you should be good
after this date so behind me is where
the shrine is it's actually like a
picture of the shrine and that's like
scaffolding and some tarp that's been
painted to look like the shrine itself
[Music]
all right so that concludes our part of
Veda Jingu shrine time to go check out
another place shopping time how did you
get in Montesano are next to each other
and walking distance from meiji jingu
shrine no need to get on a train it's
really surprising is just how clean this
area is thank you like not any garbage
anywhere it's very very clean and like
tidy and I really like motifs on dough
is filled with high fashion stores and
cool cafes to get to hodda juku all you
need to do is walk down the hill all
right so we're walking to to catch the
Dory right now you see right behind me
we've made it we're here this street is
super super busy there's just so many
people I'm not looking forward to going
through here but to show you guys what's
up I'm taking you through look at this
crowd since it's like this locals try to
avoid the case too dirty but it's a cool
spot to check out anyway huh so I don't
come here very often just because it is
too busy but to the tourists maybe they
would like seen this but it's just a
very young crowd with a lot of
inexpensive goods and so you might like
enjoy that but they found it on my style
[Music]
hope you're hungry because we're gonna
have an all-you-can-eat shabu shabu in
Shibuya to get to Shibuya you can either
walk about 15 minutes from here or hop
on the Yamanote line it's only one
station away my favorite budget shabu
shabu restaurant nabis Oh offers
different types of courses based on what
type of meat you like also there are
various soups and veggies to choose from
we had the basic nabis of course and for
soup we had the show tonkatsu and
sukiyaki it's common if you still have
energy you should get some bars and
clubs in Shibuya oh but don't forget to
check out should be a crossing before
all is said and done it's truly a cool
