    This video is so great, thank you very much for it ! Its amazing how many good tipps you share with us, about where to eat, where to shop (and what to shop), what to visit and experience etc. It must take ages to research this in details. Your channel has become one of my favorite channels on UA-cam, because you give so much love to detail and give so many great recommendations.

      I was thinking of Ueno too. What's your opinion of staying there? I decided to stay in Ueno because it's close to Akihabara and Ameyoko Shopping District.

    • @samurai_junjiro
      @samurai_junjiro  8 місяців тому +1

      @@ShallBePurified Staying in Ueno is a great choice. It's convenient to get to Narita Airport with the Keisei Skyliner, and it's close to Akihabara and Ameyoko, making it convenient for sightseeing. Additionally, it's located in a place that's easy to get to Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Asakusa by train😃

    Excellent review. Had an opportunity to visit the Ueno district in the year 2023, and have one suggestion to offer from the experience: Tuna mayo Onigiri for breakfast. By eating a small breakfast, you'll be moving on a lighter stomach throughout the day.

    How much time do you recommend to allocate/spend in each city? I’m planning to go Asakusa-Ueno and Akihabara the same day but not sure if it is too much

    • @samurai_junjiro
      @samurai_junjiro  7 місяців тому +1

      Hi :) Depending on what you want to do, spending about 3 hours at each place is a good idea.
      In Asakusa, shops open around 10 AM and close by 5 PM, so if you want to enjoy a food tour, it’s best to go early. Kaminarimon gate is less crowded in the morning, making it the best time for photos.
      In the afternoon, you can visit anime merchandise stores and electronics shops in Akihabara (like Yodobashi Akiba), or go sightseeing in Ueno :)
      If you like drinking, check out the izakayas in Ueno's Ameyoko at night!
