TOKYO SKYTREE® Admission Ticket
Since I went with my friends, the set ticket was discounted by a total of 800 yen! Even though it was a weekday, I was lined up to buy 5 or 6 sets of tickets, but I was glad that I could easily issue tickets by simply holding the QR code over the machine with a Web ticket, and I could put them in smoothly without lining up! There were not a few people, but I was able to go with peace of mind because the corona insurance was included free of charge. On the observatory deck, you can walk on the glass and get a 360-degree view of Tokyo from the glass windows, which gives you an overwhelmingly extraordinary feeling! Above all, there is a photo service on each floor and you can get one small photo for free, so that alone will be a memorable one. I don't urge you to make a forcible purchase, so you can easily decline it, and if you want to purchase it, you can save it on your mobile phone with a large photo and data for 1500 yen, so I thought it was a good deal! In the observation corridor, unlike the deck, the structure of the building is slope-shaped, and you can take pictures with a new sensation. I am very happy to be able to take beautiful pictures in the observation corridor, even if the pictures tend to be backlit on the lower floors!

Guenpin (玄品ふぐ) in Tokyo - Puffer Fish Specialist
I feel that I must try the puffer fish cuisine when I go to Japan, so I chose to order it at the Klook special price. Besides, Genpin is a well-established and well-established restaurant. Besides being cost-effective, I can eat with confidence! We chose the Roppongi store. After eating, you can go to the trendy Tokyo Midtown. It is also great to take a look at the high-end Japanese supermarkets!

Tokyo Joypolis Passport
I think it's super! it is good! play! Recommended for couples or playing half pipe tokyo with ambiguous people, it is fun and not scary. If you don’t understand the Japanese part of the haunted house, you don’t know what it is doing. At that time, it was translated into English by Japanese female high school students who came in together, but the atmosphere was very good. Overall it is recommended, there are lockers inside so you can play very freely

Hanaka Kimono Rental with Hairstyling in Asakusa
I used a hakama plan to have my friends wear it. In a nutshell, I'm very happy with this rental! Although it was reasonably priced, the fabric was solid and the color pattern was cute, and the hair set made short hair beautifully braided. Also, thanks to the fact that everything was completed in a short time of about 1 hour from the reserved time, I was able to fully enjoy the schedule after that. Even though it was a long walk in Asakusa, it was very good that my kimono and hair did not collapse. My friend, who was new to hakama, was relieved to say that it wasn't painful. Above all, I would like to thank all the staff of Hua Ya for their warm and courteous response from beginning to end! It was fun to talk a lot, and I was happy to remember that he took pictures outside. It was my first time to use such a rental, so I was a little worried, but I'm glad to meet Kamiya from many shops ◎ Please come back to Asakusa. If you are thinking of using it in the future, please feel free to enjoy the rental (* ^^ *) Thank you very much for this time!

[SALE] Tokyo Skyliner Ticket
It’s very comfortable to ride. It’s just like the Taiwan High Speed Rail. It just happens to be off-peak hours, and it’s better if there are fewer people. It’s just that I didn’t take a picture of the seat at the moment. It’s a pity that it’s too tiring to fly in the early morning! In addition, I saw the beautiful photos of Ueno Park when I came out👍 There was a blooming season at that time. Although I didn't go to see it, the neighborhood is beautiful. You can also walk here to see the Shiba Inu Maru specialty store! Super happy💗🥳

Tokyo Kimono Experience
It’s really convenient to order with KLOOK. I was afraid that the good-looking kimono styles would be picked out, so I chose the earliest one, and I did my homework a long time ago, and I found the kimono I want before I went, because it is a more gorgeous style. There will be an extra price increase on site, but you must wear the best mood when you are holding it. In addition to upgrading my kimono (+¥1000), hair accessories (+¥500), and finally finishing the winter shawl (+¥500) ), to meet the most gorgeous pomp of the audience is to be happy! ❤️ (The staff on the PS site are really meticulous, and the teachers who help to wear kimonos and makeup teachers are all local Japanese mothers, recommended 👍)
