Waiting on my plane to return home. I just spent two weeks in Japan based out of Hotel Gracery in Shinjuku. My first night I arrived and was checked in by 8pm and went to Kabukicho Tower for dinner. I was absolutely blown away. The food, music, lights, energy. Hell of a hello from Japan. I'm sad to be going home.

Really the only place I've been, is one of the towers at the Tokyo Metropolitan Building. I'm not a city guy so I wanted out asap, which I now realize was a mistake. If the plan comes together I'll be spending 3 months in Tokyo, so this gives me a few nights and weekends worth of exploring.

Yet again my relatives insisted on going to dinner in Shinjuku last month. However, this time it was Breizh Cafe. There is also one in Kyoto and the French Normandy crepes are extremely good. hahaha! the nickname of the Tokyo Metro Government Building is the 「tax building」because so much public money was used for construction.

Smashing content as always! I just found out that the capsule hotel I'll be staying soon in Tokyo is smack dab in the middle of Kabukicho. I heard that Kabukicho has the reputation of being a dodgy place. I'm a 29 yr old male solo traveller. Should I be concerned?

Hi, Most are walkable from Shinjuku station yes, My suggestion is to use google maps to point you in the general direction. When it comes to Gov metropolitan building generally the west exits will get you 10-15 min walk away, All the other mentioned attractions are walkable from Shinjuku. I suggest you use one of the maps within the station to help you with the exit. Shinjuku is prob the worlds most complicated station so don't worry if you get lost! (It's a right of passage) lol
