I spend the day in Ginza. Located in the very heart of the city, east of the imperial palace this is primarily a place for high end shopping during the day, and business men who work in the area to go party at night.

I have included lots of recommendations, but especially check out the JNTO Tourist Information Center and ask for their monthly event calendar.

Also in this video I showed my favorite Paper shop, because I am a paper dork.

And my favorite place to eat Yakitori. The place I went to in this video is just around the corner from the place I went in the Swedes video, if you remember that.

Also due to a surpising interest in the pen... here is a link to the online catalogue listing. No idea if this is available abroad. Made by Kuretake of Japan.

  • Wow, your hand writing is awesome. It looks as if you're painting kanji, you know it being thick in the beginning and then thinning out in the stroke. I know that's a random thing to think is awesome. But I notice such things because mine..... Sucks, Lol.
