Overview

Du hast den Godzilla-Kopf und die 3D-Katze schon gesehen. Jetzt geht es ins Shinjuku abseits der üblichen Touristenpfade: Parks, in denen man endlich mal in Ruhe nachdenken kann, Schreine, die älter sind als die ganze Nachbarschaft, und Gassen, die auf den ersten Blick unscheinbar wirken und sich als der eigentliche Höhepunkt deiner Reise entpuppen.

Dein lokaler Experte kennt diese Straßen lange genug, um zu wissen, wo es sich lohnt, innezuhalten. Die Route richtet sich ganz nach deinen Interessen. Manche Ecken bergen Geschichten, die man sich erst einmal anhören muss. Und genau da wird es meistens richtig spannend.

Where we'll meet

Really cool to see the narrow alleys and hidden spots behind the skyscrapers. It felt like discovering a different side of the city. A bit of a walk, but definitely worth it for the photos.
