[2025 Tokyo Attraction] Travel Guide for Marunouchi (Updated Jan)

Marunouchi Street Park is known as Marunouchi Naka-Dori Ave and within walking distance from Tokyo station. It is an area whereby you can have a coffee or eat a quick lunch or even rest your eyes. It is a quiet street in a bustling city in Tokyo and some parts of the roads are closed off to traffic. There are also many luxury boutique shops along this road and you can also find roadside café with Parisian vibes too. Sometimes there will be scheduled street markets being organized here. A great place to people watch too! #wheretogo #japan #tokyo #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

We like the accommodation here. Minimal and young people like it. 💕 . I liked it since I saw the black and white lines. The more I entered, the more I liked it. Use a key card system to tap the elevator to go up. It's safe. Downstairs is a minimalist cafe. There are a lot of power outlets. . The room is in a white tone that is easy on the eyes. The room is much larger than other places I've stayed. Walking past each other, 2 people won't bump into each other. The table is wide enough to put your suitcase up there. There's a lot of space to use. There's space for many bags behind the door. . The room has an air conditioner on the ceiling, an air purifier, a refrigerator, a flat-screen TV. The headboard is wide, can put a lot of things. There's a rotating light switch. There are also plug sockets and USB ports at the head of the bed. There are a lot of plug sockets. Counting, there are 8 sockets, both at the door, the table, the headboard and the bathroom. It's good. 👍🏻 . The bathroom is as wide as the bedroom. It's the first time I've stayed in a room with a separate bathroom and shower room. There's a basket for clothes, a towel drawer and a hair dryer at the sink. The toilet is also a new type, automatic. The shower room has a door that opens and is a sitting shower. There is a small chair and a bowl of bath water. There is a shower head. The bathtub is very wide and not too deep. There is a button to adjust the light to be white or orange. It gives a different atmosphere. The toiletries are complete and smell very good 😍. Near Marunouchi Station Exit 6 (4 flights of stairs) But if you have a lot of luggage, I recommend taking the elevator. It's a bit far to walk. But you don't have to carry your luggage up 4 flights of stairs, lol #Chubu #Nagoya #tripblazers #newyearadventure #yearofrabbit

Japan really knows how to do Christmas illuminations, blending traditional beauty with modern flair. Midtown Roppongi is famous for its beautiful light displays, especially in the Midtown Garden. The combination of luxury shopping and vibrant lights creates a festive atmosphere. Tokyo Skytree offers not only a stunning view of the city but also a spectacular light show. Its illuminations are often themed and match the season, adding a magical touch to the skyline. Marunouchi Park near Tokyo Station is another iconic spot, with its trees wrapped in delicate lights and surrounded by the historic architecture of Tokyo Station. It's like walking through a winter wonderland in the heart of a bustling metropolis! #myitinerary #thingstodo #chrismas

First Day: The Rhythm of the City Today's journey in Tokyo brought me to Marunouchi. This bustling commercial district feels like a heart that never stops beating, filled with countless stories and emotions. Standing among the skyscrapers, with the breeze brushing my cheeks, I see the sunlight reflected off numerous glass facades. Each building here has its own story, and I am but a fleeting visitor in this city. As I wander through the streets, the shops, cafes, and bookstores silently narrate Tokyo's modernity and sophistication. Even in the busy afternoon, Marunouchi retains a sense of tranquility, a unique atmosphere that makes time seem to stand still. Walking past a street corner, I suddenly see a historic building standing alongside modern skyscrapers, like a witness to history, quietly guarding this land. Second Day: A Cultural Collision in Light and Shadow On the second day, I revisited Marunouchi, this time focusing on its art and culture. As dusk fell, the night in Marunouchi gradually became adorned with lights. The artistic atmosphere in this area grew stronger, with street art installations and high-end galleries showcasing Tokyo's creativity and taste. I stopped at a bookstore on a street corner, flipping through a book about Tokyo's history, filled with admiration for this city. The charm of Marunouchi lies in its ability to find its own rhythm and tranquility, whether in the busy daytime or the serene night. Here, every corner feels like an unfinished painting, waiting for each passerby to savor it.

#getgoing2025 BUTTER I went to Butter on the B1F of Marunouchi Building for brunch with friends. We ordered pancakes and pudding, both made with butter. The signature pancakes are made to order and each pancake is carefully baked one by one on a copper plate. The set includes three freshly baked hotcakes made with the finest wheat and 100 grams of butter. The slightly sweet pancakes have a rustic flavor that goes well with the butter! You can take home any unused butter in a cool bag. The pudding was smooth and delicious. I would like to try the other items on the menu! 🏖️BAmbiance/Facilities: BUTTER 📍Address: 〒100-0005 Tokyo, Chiyoda City, Marunouchi, 2 Chome−4−1, Marunouchi Building, B1 💞Reasons to Recommend: Delicious sweets ⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ #trip #travel #traveling #Tokyo #cafe #chill
