Visiting Tokyo, Japan was nothing short of a whirlwind. I had only two days to explore the vast metropolis and barely scratched the surface of the amazing city. From streets lined with people walking shoulder to shoulder to quiet refuges tucked off the beaten path, there was no shortage of things to see, food to eat, and cats to pet. It’s hard to describe how magnificent the city is so I hope this selection of photos conveys some of that magnificence.

Thank you!
Those photos are so good! I love those small streets – and all the saimin!!!! So happy I found your blog via GLT!!
Thank you! I agree, the small streets and food are all so amazing :) Happy you found us too!
This is making me more excited to travel to Tokyo this year! The food and neighborhoods look amazing! Especially the store with too many potted plants!
You will LOVE Tokyo, it’s pretty indescribable. There are so many different neighborhoods to explore. The store with the potted plants was when I got lost on my last day walking around Nakameguro.
