[@donald.R]

Great list 👍🏻. I recommend walking between Tokyo Skytree and Asakusa. It’s about a 20-30 minute walk and you can enjoy the Sumida river and the relatively non-touristy area in between two major tourist attractions. It’s nice to get away from the crowds once in a while.

[@samurai_junjiro]

That sounds great too! You can enjoy the Japanese townscapes :)

[@CarmenPasquale-ws5co]

Thanks, this really helps us plan our trip the end of May, beginning of June 2024. We will be there for 10 days and I'm trying to do a lot of research before our trip. This video is very informative! Very excited!

Hello! Thanks for another wonderful video. Which observation deck would you recommend the most for a first time visitor?

[@samurai_junjiro]

Hello! If it's your first time in Tokyo, I recommend checking out Tokyo Skytree. You can enjoy a panoramic view of Tokyo from its 634-meter height. Also, on a clear day, SHIBUYA SKY is a fantastic spot for taking photos, so I highly recommend it :)
