Senso-ji is an ancient Buddhist temple located in Asakusa, Tokyo, Japan. It's Tokyo's oldest temple, and one of its most significant. This temple became independent after World War II. The thing that turn me down is this overcrowded environment, though. And in my own opinion, there's not much to see here so consider this place ONLY if you have an extra time. Better...

You can go up there to witness the 360 degrees of tokyo scenery. You can even see the Mountain Fuji from here. This tower could be reached either from Oshiage Station or Tokyo Skytree Station. There are two options of observation decks: Tokyo Skytree Tembo Deck (The First Observatory, 350m heights) and Tokyo Skytree Tembo Galleria (The Second Observatory, 450m heights). Pick anyone...

Tokyo skytree is another landmark and new icon replacing (?) the well-known tokyo tower. Because of its height, pick some place a little far away, for example this river near the senso-ji temple. This spot is not a walking distance from Tokyo Skytree, but if you chose the spot nearby, it won't hurt to stop by in Tokyo Skytree and see what's inside....

This one is SUPERB and it's one of my favorite. It really is uncommon and less popular among tourist. The perk for being unpopular is you can take many many photos without being disturbed by another tourist or overcrowded scenery. This pagoda is overlooking Fujiyoshida City and Mount Fuji off in the distance. In order to reach this place is not that hard...

This one is good. It would be more colorful in spring or summer, as the plant and flower already bloom at that time. Even you go in another season, this one is still great. You can choose to stay in Ryokan nearby, and if you're lucky you could get the one which provided Mt. Fuji scenery right from its onsen! Choose the one...

No. Don't go to this place for mountain viewing. But if you want to know Mt. Fuji history, feel free to stop by  at a small museum with exhibits and a movie about it on the first floor. Or maybe you could grab some bite in a restaurant and enjoy the scenery of Mt. Fuji in an observation deck on the second floor....

Witnessed the magnificent Mt. Fuji from distance. There're so many viewing spots to enjoy this scenery, and gotemba proof itself as one of the great spot to enjoy this kind of view. Other than that, you could buy so many branded items with special price. It doesn't mean that the price is low, but at least it's cheaper than the usual price. No...

Everytime I go to explore some places, I would need some shelter. Usually I would prefer a nice and clean hotel with a good deal. But out of the blue I want something different so I tried to stay in ryokan (TWICE!!). Ryokan itself is a traditional inn in Japan. The room filled with tatami and futon (traditional japanese bed). Usually, Ryokan is...

For the best experience, I recommend to buy 2-days passport so you can play at Disneyland on the 1st day and Disney Sea on the 2nd day. Believe me, the park is BIG and crowded. So it's better to enjoy 1 park in 1 day. There're so many photo spots and attraction too besides the rides, so don't be such in a rush....

Meet Max, the son of Goofy in Goof Troop Arc! I love to use him in Super Nintendo's Goof Troop Game because he could run fast haha. You could spot so many disney characters in Disney Sea, but compare to the characters in Disneyland, I prefer the one in Disneyland because the one that wonder in Disney Sea usually is not as well-known...

This is a system that lets you minimize the amount of time waiting in line at certain attractions by assigning you a specific time to enter the attraction.To receive a FASTPASS ticket, just go to the FASTPASS ticketing machines near the entrance of the FASTPASS...

Disneyland is a common thing. You name: it: there're disneyland in Paris, Hongkong, US, etc. But where's the Disney Sea? You can find it only in Japan! Named as a "Disney Sea", it won't be surprising when you see that most of the part in this park is water! Other than that, the ride is little bit more extreme compare to Disneyland. Disneyland...

Japan is one of my favorite destination. The one that I love the most is the food. Japanese Set Menu usually consists of appetizer, main course, and dessert. I think it's a little too much for an indonesian like me. At least 4 or 5 Dishes would be there (along with side dishes) to accompany the lovely japanese rice (which tastes different in...
