Tokyo trip ideas

haha... awesome.

I hear cart food is the best, and a must checkout in the back alleys near train stations, lol. Not the most sanitary, but i hear its really good. Ill have to get a tazer or something for the "wrong" alleys i wander into, haha.. /cross fingers

I found Tokyo to be very clean and safe, even the alleyways. That's actually where I found some of the best little yakitori joints.

• Shopping
  

  - Harajuku (Designer Goods)

  - Shinjaku (good shopping & also has lots of 'local' bars. Funny Japanese 'fashionistas' often found hanging around this area)

  - Shibuya (Trendy fashion District)

• Electronics
  

  - Akihabara (ask around for 'local' stores which will have knock offs & bootlegs

• Fake Designer Goods
  

  - Ueno (Ameyoko)

• Where the tourists/foreigners hang out
  

  - Roppongi (if you get home sick & want to meet Westerners)

• Cool Urban Island with shopping, malls, Sega park, eats & drinks...
  

  - Odaibu

• For the kiddies (especially when it's raining as it's all in doors)
  

  - Sanrio Puroland

I 2nd the food & stores found in Alleys. It's where the locals go & always pretty safe.

Although, some 'local' bars & clubs wont allow white people in them.
