$62 Stay in Central Shinjuku! 🏨 Explore Kabukicho, Golden Gai & Mystical Meiji Jingu Shrine
Looking for a great #ShinjukuHotel? I found an incredible #ValueHotel in the heart of Tokyo’s most vibrant district for approx $62 per night. This time, I stayed at the #podselecthotelShinjuku, a hidden gem located just a 1-minute walk from the station.
From the neon-lit nightlife of #Kabukicho and the legendary tiny bars of #GoldenGai to the mystical silence of #MeijiJingu Shrine, I’ll show you a perfect adult #SoloTravel plan to experience the “Sacred and Profane” depths of Shinjuku. Note that the station exit has many stairs, so moving with heavy luggage might require some “fighting spirit”!

こんばんは。撮影お疲れ様です。19:00 つけ麵ですか～☺ 最近 つけ麵にハマっており 家で作ってます(笑) 池袋の『大勝軒』のつけ麵(もりそば)を参考にして 作ってます(笑)
トッピングがアレンジ出来るのも つけ麵のメリットです(笑)
Для одного человека номер хороший
Thanks for another impressive video of yours!! And this hotel looked to be quite affordable, despite the amount of stairs being a 'problem' while carrying heavy luggage as you said… but aside that it's quite charming, with the normal key instead the keycard and really compact with everything and all the amenities needed for a nice night there!! And as always, all the food make me drooling across the tablet watching it… the tsukemen looked absolutely delicious with all that species to add if that's your desire and also the great breakfast in that amazing cafeteria!! And it still marvels me the way how the sanctuaries popped in the middle of the buildings, like a resilient and delicate flower amidst all the concrete giving anyone who goes to visit a space to relax and enjoy some calm … and the Meiji-Jingu sanctuary does it really well, from the majestic torii entrance door to the Sanctuary building, with the amazing forest in the middle to have a great walk and enjoy nature and calmness between them and getting another Goshuin to your collection!! Love from Spain!! 💜🇪🇦
If the walls of the hotel could write, there would be a great series of Novels. The area around the hotel matched the hotel in a way that time could reflect on the daily life across the decades. Then Shrine takes your inner soul and calms it with Mother Nature, preparing you for life's journey in today's busy world.
😊😊🏆🏆
Thank you for an other great and informative video. Parts of the streets brought back fond memories from my last visit and you have given me new ideas for my next
Thank you for another impressive video.
Thank you for taking us on another wonderful Tokyo minitrip ! What I really like about Tokyo, is how varied it is. The mix of modern and tradition, busy nightlife and relaxed shrine, loud streets and a quiet walk in the forest etc.
P.S. Hanazono shrine looks so mystical at night !
that tsukumen looks delicious. pretty sure my chopstick skills are not up to it though. Meiji Jingu was beautiful when my wife and I visited
