Ginza street or the Ginza district is probably one of the busiest districts I have seen in Tokyo. It's comprised of about eight blocks put together and has some ten thousand or so shops, business offices, karaoke night clubs, spas and restaurants. It also has lots of those Japanese malls you can visit-one I'm particularly agreeable of is-what they call it again?-Roponggi Hills where the interior is quite cozy and of the rural-modern type: sleek but with a touch of the traditional. You can also visit their Kabuki Theaters (yes, this puppet show play is still the "in" thing in Tokyo and I don't believe it will go out of fashion either); or just wine and dine on saki and sushi... Delicious! Careful though because I think they have this anti-smoking-while-walking and no-throwing-of-butts ordinance there. You wouldn't want to get caught; or else you'll lose some time to shop. Bottomline, it's cool. If you want to experience tripping the Tokyo way while you're in the country, visit Ginza. And like me, you might end up saying, "Genki-desu! Let's shop!!!"
Advantages: An amazing, fascinating city. Great food. Disadvantages: Too much concrete.
. Still, you don?t fly a third of the way around the world to go to a zoo do you? Instead, walk around the Imperial Palace, shop in Shibuya and Shinjuku, take an early morning trip to Tsukiji fish market, go clubbing in Roppongi, investigate the market at Harajuku, visit a few temples and if you can possibly arrange it ? take in some Kabuki in the Ginza area.
Tokyo is also a brilliant starting point for some excellent day trips ? Nikko, Kamakura and Hakone (where you can climb Mount Fuji if the weather / time of the year is right).
All in all, a fascinating city well worth a few weeks holiday at anytime of the year. ...

Korea is an interesting country and in many ways, she resembles cultures from both China and Japan. I am going to share with you the diary of my last trip to Seoul.
Day1:
After checking into our hotel in the Gangnam area, we went out for dinner and explored the area.
The Gangnam and Apgujeong areas in Seoul are excellent places to start if you want to have firsthand experience of the modernization of Korea. You will find many shops. Apgujeong(the equivalent of Ginza in Tokyo), where Korea's latest fashion trends always start first, can be described as the No. 1 fashion area. It's the place where famous foreign brands launch their first shop in Korea.
Nearby, you also have the COEX Mall. It is a entertainment facility in the heart of the city. With over 250 large commercial stores and over 100,000 visitors on weekdays ...
Advantages: Very nice trip, worth going back again Disadvantages: No
Japan is always one of my favourite country to visit in Asia. Let me share with you my itinery in my last trip.
This tour took place when I last visited my parents in Hong Kong.
Day 1:
Got up at 6 to get to the airport for the flight at 9am. After 3 and a half hours, finally arrived at Tokyo. Went to the toilet straight after, there are still two types of toilet(the Western and Japanese styles), like the way it was when i came a few years ago. Weather was not too bad, a bit cloudy but not too hot. Arrived at hotel at around 6 and started my Tokyo adventure after a brief break. Last time I stayed in the Ginza area which is quite commercial. This time, I stayed in Shinjuku, which is like the Soho of Tokyo. much more exciting, with lots of department stores and restaurant.
One of the places that I would definitely go when ...
