I have been to three art exhibitions here and enjoyed the content very much. The cafe is a great place to relax, looking over the green lawn garden.

Visited here on a rainy day and glad we did. Really enjoyed the dolphin and sea lion shows. And the shark tank was cool Didn’t cost much to enter either. We also visited the restaurant after which was also really good. It’s only a small aquarium but so much better than we have in the UK It’s all wheelchair accessible to and you can even borrow a chair there if you wish. Would visit again

We had half a day to spare so we decided to head to this shrine and we were pleasantly surprised by how quiet and quaint it was. It's a small shrine with lots of steps leading up to it and they have a mini set of tori gates leading to one of the small worship shrines.

I have been to most of the racecourses in GB and Ireland but none of them compare with Tokyo City Keiba (Oi) It is reached easily on public transport and even has it's own station on the Haneda Monrail link 100yds from the track. Entrance fee is also an amazing 100Yen (around 70P in English) For a course that only holds low grade racing similar to Wolverhampton in the UK I am amazed at the size of the place. The facilities are the best I have ever seen on a racecourse, there are three huge stands which run the length of the straight with loads of accessible seating and numerous bars and eating places- all at reasonable prices too. You will struggle to find a better value sporting day out anywhere- I would highly recommend a visit if you are going to Tokyo.

A wonderful flea market held every week end in Tokyo is a must see for bargain and souvenir hunters a like. The market is full of used items from clothes to priceless antiques. Vendors are very friendly and are willing to bargain in any language. I never miss it when I am in Tokyo.

a peaceful place isolated from the hustle and bustle of Shinagawa station. 10 minutes walk from the station west exit.
10. megurogawa MINNA no ILLUMI
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 53 reviews
Along the Meguro River, trees burn bright blue and pink for the Illumination festivities. Crafted to turn the drab winter scenery into a dreamscape that delights the imagination and charms the senses, thousands of LED lights are used to brighten the river walk during the Meguro Illumination. Most impressive of all the displays is the "Sakura Namiki" Illumination, which singularly utilizes nearly 160,000 LEDs to recreate the springtime burst of delicate magenta cherry blossoms. Also unmissable is the "Kodomotachi no Yume Tree", or Children's Dream Tree, constructed from recycled bottles and lit by the green energy created by passing foot traffic.
