At the end of July 2013 two of my friends came to Tokyo for holiday, so one evening we went together with a Japanese friend to an izakaya (traditional Japanese pub). I really like the atmosphere at izakayas, and the food is usually very different/exotic and tasty!
Ueno Zoo, May 2013
I have only visited one zoo in Japan so far, and that was Ueno Zoo in the middle of Tokyo. I wouldn’t mind going there again. It was a very nice zoo with many beautiful and some rare and exotic animals. The most famous are of course the pandas!
