The planets have aligned and I finally managed to start editing the 1200+ photos we took in Tokyo. Cause, if you follow me on Instagram, you are already aware of the fact that we were in Tokyo for 5 days, during the Easter Holiday. To begin with, I can already tell you that Tokyo and Hong Kong are my favourite cities we saw since we got here and Tokyo probably got to be No.1 on my list.

The city is amazing, very high-tech, well organised and has so much to offer. We walked every day 10+ km, from morning to evening and we had still had something different to see and do. Not to mention about the people - they were all extremely nice, helpful, well mannered and moreover, all of the persons we dealt with could speak English. Thumbs up for that!! Plus that 99% of the men wear suits at work, so its a delight to catch the rush hour at the subway stations and see them all so elegant rushing from side to the other. :)

But moving on, today I want to show you some photos we took during our first day there and actually they are not so many simply because we were dead tired. We had a night flight and got there at 5am, so we basically didn't sleep at all that night. At the hotel we got at around 6.30am and we could normally make the check-in at 14pm, but luckily we agreed to get the room at 11am. Still had to wait for a few hours, but you know 4 hours are better than 7 haha. Our hotel was situated in an amazing location - very close to the subway stations, therefore easy to get to all our points of interest, but also quite close to the Imperial Palace and to the Ginza district (a very posh district, recognised by many as one of the most luxurious shopping districts in the world).

So anyway, first things first, we had to start the day with a big huge coffee from Starbucks in order to resist a few more hours, after which we decided to see the Hibiya Park because it was quite close to us. Said and done, but we didn't stop there and we actually had a tour outside the Imperial Palace as well and from there all the way back to the hotel and easy breezy we had already walked 4-5 km :))
I can't even tell you on what Zombie Level we were by that time, but we got through it and slept a few hours after receiving the room. However, it was very nice to see the city at an early hour and to enjoy it also in the quiet mode, because that was in fact the only time when we saw it in a quiet mode like that.

During the afternoon we decided to go to see the Electric City (Akihabara) which is the perfect place for gamers - you can find here everything regarding consoles and video games, but also phones, computers, photo cameras and even souvenirs or food. The area is quite busy, especially during the weekends and it is definitely worth a visit, or two in our case :).

Finally, our very long first day ended with a visit in Shibuya, which is the busiest and one of the most famous districts in Tokyo. The area is also called the Tokyo's Times Square and you can probably guess why from the pictures below :D. Also, I have never seen so many people in one place in my entire life, but the feeling you get there is amazing. Besides the tall, colourful, full of ads and lights buildings, this area is also good for shopping or to find a place to eat or to have a drink. And actually you just can't go to Tokyo and not pay a visit to Shibuya! :)

On another matter, it is the first time when I managed to shoot my outfit during the night and I only have few photos, but I hope you'll like this look as much as I do. :)

Next week will come with new stories and outfits, stay tuned!
Until then, have a lovely weekend!
