Tokyo is the biggest city in the world with a population of 37 MILLION PEOPLE! With an endless amount of things to see and do, it can be overwhelming when you arrive there for the first time and aren’t really sure of how to get started. I hope that in this city guide I will introduce to the 4 main tourist districts of the city that are MUSTS when visiting for the first or if you’re just short on time, but want to go where all the action is happening. Join me as we tour Asakusa, Shibuya, Harajuku and Shinjuku for a full day of action packed sightseeing in a Japanese pop culture metropolis! Also I would highly recommend going to the traditional music of Zakura Show who kindly invited me to experience their awesome performance. You can check them out here: https://www.zakuroshow.com/en

The travel health insurance I use – PassportCard Nomads: https://www.passportcardnomads.com/?ref=alinamcleod
*I highly recommend this travel health insurance because you don’t have to pay out of pocket for your medical expenses and they have very reasonably priced long term plans. You can buy the packages for shorter trips as well, but they’re especially fantastic for digital nomads and nomads who want regular health insurance when they are abroad. I am an affiliate of this company, but of course use the plans myself.

We Japanese are rational and calm, unlike Chinese and Koreans.Please do not come to Japan if you are a foreigner who takes advantage of that and commits illegal acts, or throws away garbage in public.Even in Japan, vicious illegal acts such as rape occur in areas where there are many Koreans.be careful.
Wow
I thought Shamisen and others were regular cultural practice ? But didnt know they become rare this fast !! Also thankfully God smiled on
our Angel and its been a pleasant experience for Alina so far, Hopefully Japan treats you superbly well, especially Shinkansen travel.
As compared to the mental torture in metal box in Russia. 🤣🤣😵😵😵💫😵💫
Dear Lord i would've lost my mind if my daughter went through that, I'd call her home keep her home for a week or 2 give her lots of hugs and her favorite foods. And I dont know what else. 🥺🥺🥺Love from India. 💖💗💖💝💓💝
夜にアルコールの匂いのする所には何故か【人間】が集まる習性があるんですね。
人との出会いがあるかも？
最後は【夜の新宿】で決まりでしょう！
Fantastic video. So much to see and do when I am there. Crowds have certainly come back since the restrictions where dropped. Unfortunately for me the days that I will be there are weekends and when it will be busy.
👍❤❤
It looks like you are enjoying Tokyo and Japan as a whole, Alina! 💚💚💚🇯🇵🔝✔
hi Alina, have a nice day always ❤
😢
Love u AM
Love your vedio from Tokyo..
Tokyo is a place I have to see now! You look great Alina and seem very happy ❤❤
Hokkaido, Niigata, Kanazawa, Sendai and Yamagata are great destinations for your Japan. Yamagata Ginzan Onsen is very rural, but it has the atmosphere of going back in time to the Taisho era.
Konnichiwa! Great video. I'm planning a trip there this November for my birthday, and this video gave me a few ideas. I can't wait; Tokyo feels like an out-of-this-world experience!🤩
What a great video!! Love your entire Japan series. Cheers from Toronto!!
Hi Alina.
Really love your vids.
We too love Tokyo and Japan as a whole.
One thing that we were amazed by was the variety, quality and price of the food in Konbinis, Lawson, Family Mart and Seven Eleven. It would be great to maybe see you do a review of these. Japan cops a lot of negativity due to being too expensive but it can be quite cheap to eat by going to Kombini’s and Izakayas. Eat where the locals eat.
Is wearing face mask compulsory in Tokyo? Any fines for not wearing them
Tokyo is definitely in the Top 5 best cities in Asia, if i make my Top 100 Asian Cities soon. Love Tokyo so much.
I love ur comments re: Japan l've been in that place 4 so many times. Will B back again hopefully this Oct. N thereabouts. D Japanese Govt should recognize u 4ur wonderful n accurate n natural greatness of Japan in general N..d prople in particular
ALINA……..!!!!!!!!!!☺👋👋👋 Earlier I could only think of traveling to South Korea in Asia before going elsewhere but now after watching a series of your videos I think I have fallen in love with Japan too…..☺☺☺
Thank you….Alina…!!!😊
Just got back from a 6 week trip to Asia including Japan. Great overview of Tokyo. I enjoyed it ! Thanks for sharing.
