Since this is our last day (can’t leave the cats for too long and both children who were minding the cats, also have to get back to work), we decided to take it free and easy, so it’s another park in the afternoon. The temperature on the two previous days had been about 14 degrees, […] It’s Monday and we planned to visit the Imperial Palace, so we took the subway to the station nearest to the Imperial Palace. It was raining in the morning, luckily I had bought a cat umbrella from Kamakura the day before! A moat surrounds the East Gardens of the Imperial Palace and these […] We decided two temples would be enough for the day, so we visited the quaint little shops in this ancient town.

Look, there’s a black-and-white cat!! Picnic under the sakura trees. They camp all day, overnight, and throughout the weekend! There […] I had earlier googled, read reviews and the Neko Maru Cat Cafe seemed to be one of the best cat cafes in Tokyo. By sheer luck, it was located just 6 minutes away from our hotel. So we walked there after dinner. But we couldn’t find it until we stopped at another hotel and the […] After visiting Hachiko at Shibuya, we took another train which led us to the Meiji Jingu or Meiji Shrine. Located in the heart of the city, but once you enter, it is an entire forest! Meiji Jingu Shrine is built in the traditional nagare-zukuri style with Japanese cypress. It is the largest […] |
