๐ŸŽ Tokyo Shinjuku ๐ŸŒƒ: The Charm of Urban Corners

In Tokyo's evenings, there's a little alley that feels like a scene from the food drama "Midnight Diner," comforting many busy city dwellers. This small lane in Shinjuku is called (pronounced Omoide Yokochu in Japanese), which translates to "Memory Lane" or "The Alley Full of Memories." ๐Ÿฎ A short path of less than 90 meters, hidden under the skyscrapers of Shinjuku, is filled with red lanterns and signs of small restaurants, decorated with red maple leaves ๐Ÿ or cherry blossoms ๐ŸŒธ that change with the seasons, giving off a retro Showa-era vibe. It's a stark contrast to the cyberpunk feel of nearby Shinjuku Station and Kabukicho, offering a powerful impact. ๐Ÿข In this narrow alley, there are many cozy small restaurants, barbecue shops, and Japanese izakayas. After work, gathering here with friends for a meal ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿบ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ is probably a healing moment for many Tokyoites. If you happen to be near Shinjuku in Tokyo and wonder what to do at night, you can take a CityWalk here to experience the late-night diner in the bustling city center, smell the smoke of urban corners, and enjoy Japanese snacks at a barbecue shop or izakaya ๐Ÿ˜‹. Although the restaurants here are simple, the prices are also quite affordable. ๐Ÿ“ Location: Omoide Yokochu (pronounced Omoide Yokochu in Japanese) (Also known as "Memory Alley" / "The Alley Full of Memories") Specific location: 1-2 Nishishinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo #TokyoTravel #MidnightDiner #Shinjuku #ShinjukuMemoryAlley
