The 10 Best Fun Activities & Games in Tokyo, Kanto
Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

From my Hyatt Regency hotel room on the 22nd floor overlooking Chou Park, I can see a flurry of activities at 6:00 AM in the morning. There was folks doing stretching exercises, bystanders copying the exercise, workers heading for their offices and stores, tourists eating their early morning take-out breakfast, and folks walking their dogs. After observing for several mornings, I visited the park and found it a delightful and wonderful park in the middle of the business district. Tennis courts and fields for the athletic players, amphitheater for the audience, lunch spot for the nearby office workers, easy walking paths for the elderly, playground for kids, wading pool for toddlers, and benches everywhere for the many tourists to enjoy a few moments in the park surrounded by an abundance of greenery. The park is very clean and well kept. I enjoyed the fresh morning air, the quiet atmosphere, the meditative mood, and the relaxing walk at the WONDERFUL PARK... at Shinjuku Chou Park.

The stadium and the area around it are quite interesting. There’s a large park. We were there for the Ginko festival at the end of November when the trees were at their peak. It was very popular, so a little difficult to get through the crowd, but everyone was so happy that it was a pleasure being there.

"Shinjuku-batting-center" serves as a landmark of "Kabuki-cho." Entrance to an institution is no charge. When enjoying "BATTING," it is 300 yen 1 time, and they are 26 ball. I am preparing a bat, shoes, and a glove for nothing. There is also a place which enjoys pitching. Please come for play.

Amazing fun and very affordable. Recommended for all tourists at least once. Got addicted and played 13 games of 22 balls straight (286 ball throws). Cost 4,000 Yen and I was absolutely hammered! Hit 3 home runs under the 110km/h speed. I would recommend picking the 80/90/100km/h speed settings for a beginner/intemediate. Then, after a few games, move to lane 4/5 for 110/120/130km/h to test yourself against a faster pitch. After 13 games, my hands are covered in blisters. Please look after yourself and don’t do 13 games straight like me. Overall, wonderful experience!

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.

Hanegi park
Reviewed By blehblehbleh82 - Shinjuku, Japan
The flowers of the plum blossoms (ume in Japanese) usually bloom a month before the cherry blossoms. Hanegi Park is perfect to visit in Mid- February to early March when almost 650 plum trees in pink, red and white colors are beautifully blooming around the park. Have a relaxing walk around the bushes and take a refreshing drink or snack near the baseball field. You can find some stalls selling Japanese food. Usually they are there for the Ume Matsuri (Plum Festival) in February to March.
