新宿ゴールデン街 - Shijuku Golden Gai
Shinjuku Golden Gai, one of many “yokocho” located in Tokyo
新宿ゴールデン街
迷路ような並んだ狭い道に居酒屋がたくさんあります。その小路は店のカラフルな光で照されるので、特殊な場所だと思います。
Shinjuku Golden Gai (新宿ゴールデン街) is one of Tokyo’s famous “yokocho” (横丁), which are narrow alleys that gather very small bars called “izakaya” (居酒屋). I mean, there are pretty small, 10 counter sits top.
The combination of those lights and the bohemian vibe makes this a picturesque place to see in Tokyo.
It really makes me feel a character from “Midnight Diner”, a Netflix must see series that is placed in a “yokocho”.

Here are some more of the Shinjuku lights
思い出横丁 - Omoide Yokocho
Omoide Yokocho (思い出横丁) is one of the most famous “yokocho” in Shinjuku (Tokyo). Yokocho is an alley filled of small bars called “izakaya”, very traditional in Japan. I mean, they are pretty small, like 10 counter sits top.
It reminds me of “Midnight Dinner: Tokyo Stories”, an absolutely must see hidden gem on Netflix. The main character is “the Master”, which cooks whatever his clients want, as long as he has the ingredients. But as the series goes on, we get to know a little about some of the clients lives in a very subtle way, connecting them with food.
新宿区 - Shinjuku
新宿駅は電車と地下鉄がたくさん出発するので、東京の重要な駅です。それに、新宿で働いる人がたくさんいて、乗り換えする人もいるので、駅がとても混雑しています。
新宿区ではいろいろな店が集まっているので、買い物をしている人でいつも混雑しています。それに、レストランと喫茶店もたくさんあります 。
Well, let’s talk about Shinjuku! First of all, Shinjuku Station is one of the most busy stations all over Japan. A great variety of train and subway lines are connected to it.
Shinjuku District is also very crowded, as it is an important shopping area in Tokyo. It has lots of restaurants and cafes, which are always very busy.
This one is probably my favorite. Old people, watch out for phone scammers! This is good advice in America too.

So here’s how my trip to Tokyo went:
I finished work at 9:30 pm and took the train to Minami Kusatsu to get the midnight bus which my boyfriend made it seem like it would be difficult to find the bus stop so when I found it immodestly after arriving, I thought I was wrong because it was too easy to find and I had to go to the police station for them to tell me I was right…
So I get on the bus and I go to my seat but the people in the row ahead of me have their seats all the way reclined and are VIOLENTLY making out and it’s loud and disgusting. So I moved to an open seat cause that’s nasty. We (apparently) made several rest stops on the way. I say apparently because I brushed my teeth and took allergy medicine at the first test stop and then I was out for the entire ride. It was nice, they give you blankets and there are blackout curtains covering all the windows so you can sleep. And it only costs about ¥1800 so that’s great.
Well, we arrived at Shinjuku station around 5am so nothing is open and no trains are running. That’s fine. I’m just going to check my heavy bag into a coin locker and fiddle around on the internet until this Starbucks opens at 7. WRONG! ALL of the coin lockers in ALL of the Tokyo stations are closed for like 5 days because President Obama is in Japan. I mean, I get the security risk but my bag was so big and heavy. Thanks Obama…
So next, I need to find a place to stay because I don’t have a Japanese credit/debit card to reserve a place online. So I walk to the first hostel and they’re full. So I google another one. On my walk to the second hostel, I actually find a different hostel. They have an opening and I can go to my room right away. This is my first time being in a hostel and it’s basically an alleyway between two buildings that has become this open air, makeshift lobby. Then there’s a building in the back with dorms. And they’re really nice! Just 4 bunk beds in a room. And there’s one other girl staying in there. She’s Canadian and just kinda hanging out in Japan. So first things first, I crank up the AC and have a nice cozy nap.
After my nap, around noon, I have lunch, get all dolled up in my super cute dress and head out to the Sailor Moon Exhibition in Roppongi. It’s great. I only got a little lost. But my brand new, MEGA EXPENSIVE Liz Lisa wedges absolutely fall apart while I’m in the museum. But the time I get back to my hostel (which doesn’t involve a huge amount of walking) my shoes are in pieces.
To be continued….
