JAPAN Itinerary 2017/2018 Autumn

2017

Last year autumn, I have been to Kyoto, Osaka and half day in Hiroshima.

KYOTO, HIROSHIMA





See this beautiful scene of Kyoto 😍 How could I not to fall in love with this city?

Took bullet train to Hiroshima



See the maple 😍 The part of Hiroshima I have been was very quiet and peaceful.

First tourist attractions in Kyoto - Kinkakuji

Kinkakuji




Second tourist attractions in Kyoto - Arasiyama







Third tourist attractions in Kyoto - Kiyomizu Dera


You can keep the ticket as a bookmark 😍

Was under renovation





Once you have done the sight-seeing, you may follow the path to the street to do shopping.

Personally love third tourist attraction - Kiyomizu Dera the most, not only the beautiful scene, temple, or culture, but also the souvenirs I can grab from here! 

My fav and I would say you will definitely regret if you don't give a try on this - Malebranche green tea biscuit!! Typically, the price of  Japan souvenirs is about the same, around RM4.50 - RM5 per piece.



Last night in Kyoto. 


OSAKA

Compared to Kyoto/Hiroshima, Osaka is considered busier, crowded than Kyoto and Hiroshima. In Kyoto, shops are close around 8pm - 9pm; while in Osaka, most of the shops are close after 9pm, between 9pm to 10pm.






FYI this hotel name: Karaksa Hotel




Typical tourist shot

 Goodnight Osaka! 

Goodbye Japan!




2018

After a year! I was visiting to Tokyo this year end of October (autumn)!


Day 1 - Tokyo Disneyland
When talk about Tokyo, Tokyo Disneyland is the one couldn't be missed out!!!



Fast pass for Monster Ride & Go Seek

Guess what? Hehe


The Castle!!! 💓

Photo-bomb 😂







Magic Light Show start at 7pm+



Fireworks start at 8pm+

Goodbye Tokyo Disneyland 😇

Took train back to Shinjuku. It's a challenge for us to take train ourselves, luckily there was a Japanese colleague brought us back to Shinjuku.


Reached Shinjuku station

My first thought of Shinjuku was, why was Japanese getting off work at this hour!? Yea you still can see lot of white-collar on the street, some of them were sober, some of them not (quite drunk). And yea, some building's light was still on, means someone was still in the office. My very first time see this in Japan, maybe this's the culture of this city.

Our colleagues who didn't stay back for fireworks, they left Disneyland early and helped us to do check-in. And the Japanese also first time staying this hotel, we were get lost as this hotel has two building - new and old.

We were accidentally walked to new building and when we discovered that we were at wrong place, we were like : arghhhh whyyy, we were tired.

*fyi, from the station to hotel, we took 20mins of walking. And we have been staying in Disneyland since 8am till night 10pm :) so you may imagine how tired we're*

Lots of funny stuff happened, we took a lift back to basement to walk out this building, and when the lift stopped at 2nd floor (total 3 floor, we were at 3rd floor lobby and turned back to 1st floor), 2nd floor was dark and a girl standing front of the lift, we all were get shocked lol, one of our colleague shouted "Japanese ghost" lolllll.

And even reached the right building, we could not find where's the lobby zzz, I wonder, why's this hotel structure is so confusing.

So, finally we found the lobby and got back our luggage to back to our room. And my room was quite near to corner room/尾房, but whatever, we're tired.

How small it's......

Tadaaaaaaaa this's what I bought at Tokyo Disneyland - limited Pandora charm (only in Disneyland)


Day 2 - Chiba





Arcakit Kinshicho



 Kabukicho 歌舞伎町


Shinjuku at nigt

Shopping at Don Quijote Shinjuku


Day 3 : Sight-seeing @ Kamakura & Enoshima


First stop: Kamakura


 The Great Buddha

Green tea ice cream is a must in Japan!






Second stop: Enoshima

Enoshima is an island of Japan, peaceful place.






Around 4pm+, we were heading back to Shinjuku, but the traffic was heavy af, zzz 😡 We reached hotel at 7pm.

Magazine of Japan! (comes with bag/pouch etc)



Dinner at Ichiran Ramen



After dinner, we walked for 15mins to this theme restaurant which was quite far away from our hotel.

Then walked for 20mins back to the street and saw this!


Day 4 : Asakusa, Skytree & Free Time



Tokyo Sky Tree

 Famous tourist attraction - Asakusa


JPY300

After Asakusa, we took train to Tokyo station, which same like KL Central, central of all train station. No worries, they do have staffs who are able to speak English, you may inquiry for how to go to your destination.

So there goes what we bought after 2hours of shopping at Tokyo station.


Goodbye Tokyo! Till we meet again 💓
