Too Many People in Tokyo, I Might Skip Next Time! (1)😓

Today was mostly about moving around. Checked out of Kikuya, and then it was off to Tsukuba via Tokyo. 🍃🌸 Since my travel buddy hadn't been to Tokyo before, I couldn't really plan a full itinerary, but we did manage to stop by the Outer Garden of the Imperial Palace and snap a quick photo at the Nijubashi Bridge. 🌉 The Nijubashi Bridge is located in front of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo, which is the residence of the Japanese Emperor. 🍃🌸The palace was originally built as a castle by the Edo Shogunate in 1657 and became the Emperor's residence in 1888. The palace is surrounded by a vast moat, and the Nijubashi Bridge, also known as the "spectacles bridge" because of its shape, is one of the best photo spots in Tokyo. 🌟 After arriving at Tokyo Station smoothly by JR, I planned to check my luggage first. But as soon as I got off the train, I was stunned by the massive crowds. Oh my gosh, Tokyo is just packed with people! 🍃🌸 The station was bustling with hurried travelers, and there were so many shops that I could probably spend a whole day just wandering around here. I looked it up, and Japan has a population of 123 million, with Tokyo accounting for 14 million of them. No wonder it's so crowded! 😮 #Tokyo 🌇
