ME!!!
Going from 27th Nov to 15th Dec though...
Around the Tokyo and Kyoto region though... like Nikko, Takayama, Nagoya, Hakone...
Weather's gonna be cold..
Basically itinerary will be going straight to Kyoto first.. then work towards Tokyo...
Any places that are MUST-go in these regions? Still working out details of where exactly to go..
the urge to cover as many places as possible within a short time-frame, that frequently led to disappointment.
Haha i'll be there from 25 Nov - 9 Dec... too short for my liking but work commitments are limiting...
Unfortunately, this time round i'm forced to jump from place to place, unlike the previous one where i stayed in tokyo for 10 days.
Those were fun days, exploring every nook and cranny in that idiosyncratic city. Whoever said that tokyo is boring and can be skipped hasn't seen every part of it. Most ppl go to Harajuku, Shinjuku, Shibuya, Akihabara, Disneyland, Tsukiji, Asakusa and think that's about all. There're actually a lot more to tokyo, the lonely alleyways, the suburbs where buildings are short again, the small, signless restaurants, fresh food markets in the crook of a cross road, etc. Lots of photo op if you like to walk and walk. Take a bus too, it's a fun experience, but cycle at your own risk.
Tokyo Bay Odaiba can be said as my favourite location in Tokyo =)
have you been to Tokyo Bay Wedding Village? its mighty beautiful in the night with its french and english styled buildings lit by incandescant lighting....
Oh, not been there yet. So far, I've only visited Odaiba once, it feels like another city altogether. Wish i had more time to explore the place, it's huge! This trip round, i will only have 2 short days in Tokyo (mostly spent at Akiba for 2nd hand goods and visiting various flea markets for cheap japanese knock-offs) so will probably have to give it a miss again.
Odaiba is probably one of the must-go locations in Tokyo, some other under-rated areas includes Roppongi Hills and Shiodome
i'll be spending 8 days in Tokyo, venturing to places that are off the beaten-path of tourists, should give me a greater insight =)
If u have time, you shld try the toyota test drive at odaiba. The last time i went there i found out that you had to book before hand... so sad, had desperately wanted to take the MRS for a spin.:sweat:
unfortunately i do not have a license xD
