Had the best Mt. Fuji shave ice of my life here!

I want to experience Sakura.

I wish I could do the climb - but apparently they stop conducting them in Oct. since too dangerous :(

The climb is easy and it's totally worth it!

I could people watch all morning at Tsukiji, world's largest fish market. The diversity of offerings can delight any seafood lover's cravings. Go early to watch the auctions. You won't believe the prices some of these fish garner.

Not sure if it's still there but a restaurant at the base of Tokyo Tower had the best Chicken Katsu I've ever had. If you're near Tokyo Tower, look for Chicken Katsu at the restaurants nearby.

Great views of the city from here.

High towers. Yeah. Nice view at night.

That's actual green tea coming out of that tea pot!

It must be really crowded right now, you might have to make a book 2 months before

One of my favorite shrines!

Not really into Shrines/Temples, but this is a must do.

2,700 square feet filled with outlets selling gourmet ingredients including spices, salts and vinegars. A food lover's paradise.

Hiked all the way from top to bottom of this river in college.

While you are in Japan, be sure to visit one or more of the tea plantations, like Obubu Tea in Kyoto. You can find them on facebook or their website
