Kabukicho
Kabukicho is the entertainment district that sits just steps from the east exit of Shinjuku Station. It’s a major hub for izakaya pubs, amusement centers and nightlife spots to enjoy after hours. With neon signs lit up through the entire night, it’s earned the nickname of “the city that never sleeps”.
Tons of bars and clubs.
Really has that late-night party vibe.
Don Quijote Shinjuku Kabukicho Store
Don Quijote Shinjuku Kabukicho Store is the discount shop drawing shoppers from near and wide for its whopping selection and unbeatable prices. Sat at the entrance of Kabukicho, Japan’s largest entertainment district, the store is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year so you can easily pop in for shopping whether on your way during the day or night.
You can seriously get lost in here and end up not even knowing what you're buying. Only realize you grabbed five extra bags when you walk out the door!
Sadoya Winery
Founded in 1917 in Kofu City, Sadoya Winery is an esteemed establishment and long-time player in the wine game. Many toast to its claim as the pioneer of authentic dry wines in Japan and sheer dedication to craft wines that always pair with a meal. Plus, its easy access just a 5-minute walk from JR Kofu Station keeps patrons happy, head-to-toe. Step over to the winery to find a spacious property of some 7,200 square meters (approximately 2,200 tsubo), all beaming with an atmosphere akin to a château in the South of France.
The tasting experience was really comfortable—no awkwardness at all. The staff were super friendly and patient in explaining everything. I especially loved their wines made from Yamanashi grapes; you can really taste the fresh fruitiness.
Aeon Mall Kushiro Showa
A massive shopping mall located in Kushiro, the most populous city in the eastern Hokkaido area. Conveniently situated about an 8-minute drive from JR Shin-Fuji Station, the mall is anchored by Aeon Kushiro Showa and surrounded by a commercial area featuring electronics stores, large toy retailers, and more.
The place is super spacious and really comfortable to walk around. It never feels crowded at all.
