- Tokyo, Japan Travel Vlog. My first impression of Tokyo, Japan! I traveled to Japan for the first time and explore Tokyos top attractions& top places to see in Tokyo; Shibuya crossing, Senso-Ji Temple in Asakusa & Harajuku. I go vintage shopping at Tokyo's best second-hand store Chicago, I tired traditional ramen and Japnese sweets in Nakamise. I also share the cost of traveling Tokyo (prices of capsule hotel, food, transportation in Tokyo).

I've visited most of the big cities in the world, but only Tokyo is on a different level. To be more precise, Japan itself is a very peculiar place, just like any other planet outside of Earth. In a good way, of course. You'll feel it more if you visit different parts of Japan, not just Tokyo.
I never thought Tokyo was better than Shanghai, as Shanghai combines modernity and tradition
In the past, Tokyo has always been the most desirable Asian city for Shanghainese. Today Tokyo is also one of my personal favorite cities. But Shanghai has a huge advantage that Tokyo cannot compare with, that is, the park and green area in the center of Shanghai far exceeds that of Tokyo.
Your last comment is everything.
Tokyo has an advantage over other cities in Asia or elsewhere, in terms of city evaluation. You can also enjoy the nature in Mt.Takao which is located in Hachioji area.
it definitely is an incredible city!
@@KajaKubickaIt is originally the largest urban area in the world, with a population of nearly 40 million, accounting for 1/3 of Japan’s population. Tokyo can be visited, but if I want to live there, I would still choose Shanghai because of its diverse and charming atmosphere.😅
I've been traveling to Japan for 25 years (30+ trips) and every trip is a new experience. Truly the greatest travel destination in the world. Period. I'll be back in a few days.
Welcome to Tokyo of my hometown 😎
Tokyo is not comparable with any other cities in so many ways! I miss living there after living overseas.
Btw when it comes to vintage clothing it’s the best of the best too!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!! I'm so glad Tokyo was an amazing experience for you!
Thanks to the best Tokyo guide!! haha ❤️
Tokyo is the biggest city on earth not only in population but also in urbanity, density and size.
You’re so REAL for this!!!
The atmosphere in China is bit like a South Europe or US style in East Asia, cuz their people feels more random than other East Asians. Japan feels like the North Europe style of East Asia. In these mega cities around Asia, I love Tokyo and shanghai the most, two totally different lifestyle.
Hey I'm from Tokyo and I'm glad you love my country! Thanks for making this video. I'm surprised you think it's expensive cuz the $ is so strong now everything is half price compared to LA where I live now. Fun fact, Shibuya crossing starbucks is the world #1 sales Starbucks.
Great start thanks for sharing
glad you liked it!
Great your of this awesome city which is Tokyo. Thank you
I m surprised that you had not been to Japan. I like Japan and would like to go back there. Enjoy! I also love Bangkok.
Brilliantly filmed Kaja. I have watched all Alina's Japan videos. Amazing city. 👍😊🇮🇪🇯🇵⛩️
Check out Takayama, pretty cool little city. Lot's of traditional buildings in the old town area.
True, I went there in April during cherry blossoms. So beautiful ❤
Great vlog! What cam are you using?
It was so cool to meet you in person in my favorite city!!
Both Shanghai and Tokyo are fascinating 😃
yess so nice running into you in Tokyo!
Welcome to Harajuku, Shibuya and Asakusa！😆
Tokyo's population is 1.4 millions. A total population of Tokyo megapolis including neighboring prefectures such as Kanagawa, Chiba, and Saitama
is around 4 millions.
correction: it should read 14 millions, not 1.4 m、 and megapolis population is 40 millions, not 1.4 m.
I am crazy, made a mistake again. 40 millions , not 4 m.
Best ramen in Tokyo is kyusyu jangara ramen to me🐖🍜. Currency rate was good this year to travel in Japan ,I guess😉.
Kaja Kubicka where is NINA, why you not bring NINA together ? Miss so much when you travel together and soo adventure...
back to asia！Hope to see you in shanghai again💕
forget to say that dragon boat festival is coming in a few day，many celebration activies then.
How you finance these trips if its not a State Secret? I know how big vloggers do.
Akibara amazing
Akihabara coming in the next vlog! ;)
What they used to say
The notable difference is that you can express your discontent with local political parties freely in Tokyo. Try it in Shanghai.
然而你自由表达完之后，没有任何人会真正理你，这就是民主的虚伪性，比如东电公司为了自己的成本把核污染水排海。中国政府和人民跟你的区别是从来不会说自己是完美的、骄傲自满，而是低下去实际解决问题（However, after you express your freedom, no one will really care about you, which is the hypocrisy of democracy. For example, TEPCO dumping nuclear contaminated water into the sea for its own costs. The difference between the Chinese government and people compared to you is that they never claim to be perfect or proud, but rather they humble themselves and focus on solving practical problems.）
Glad you are enjoying Tokyo. Yes it is more expensive when you compared to other Asian countries like Thailand or Taiwan, But the city this size and so much to offer, it's actually not bad (especially food) and way cheaper than NY or LA or Paris. Now is the time to go haha.
Must Go, Yokahama, Tachikawa, Kichoji, Yamanashi, Kamakura, Sapporo, Okinawa, thank me later.
You need to visit Taipei too. It's an amazing place to explore.
😂
It's not worth going to
I will go to Tokyo next Friday. Next week will be the longest week in my life!!!!
enjoy it!
You made me want to visit Tokyo !
GOOD haha
东京那么冷了吗？穿那么多衣服？
Watched
🇲🇾♥️🇯🇵
Next go to Seoul 👍
Ok Tokyo is my next destination. So Tokyo is more expensive than Copenhagen? 😮
I would say the prices are actually pretty similar! and food definitely cheaper! there is more variety in Tokyo
Shanghai???
NO WAY!!!!!!
No, the best city in the world is neither Shanghai nor Tokyo, it's Kunming China, if you stayed there for more than ten years you'll agree with me.
Shanghai is the best city in the world
Shanghai and hongkong are not really chinese city.
If a foreigner is a "China hand" in China, the communityIf a foreigner is a "China hand" in China, the community they live in will gradually see them as one of their own and treat them generously and warmly. However, in Japan, foreigners are always seen as outsiders because the Japanese are inherently exclusive. The more polite they seem on the surface, the more insurmountable this barrier becomes.（如果外国人在中国是一个“中国通”，那他所居住的社区会逐渐把你人当成自己人，大方和热情。但在日本，外国人永远被视为外国人，因为日本人在骨子里是排外的，越是表面看起来礼貌，反而让这层隔阂越无法逾越）
但是中国的绿卡太难拿到了，这个是最大的问题。
别扯淡了，外国人在中国也很难被认为中国人。东亚文化如此，日本一样，中国也一样。
@@gilbert8156我觉得不会 中国人比日本人更好交朋友
@@submarine1839 那是你觉得，你觉得你所谓的老外朋友哪个是中国人？
@@gilbert8156 挺多的啊 主修日语辅修中文的一个白人小哥哥亲口和我说 和日本人交朋友太难了 和中国人要好很多
compare an apple to a parrot?
pear :P
I blame my NZ accent! @@KajaKubicka
I never thought Tokyo was better than Shanghai😂
Did you just really just say that Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku song is questionable …..unbelievably Woke.
No need to compare , it just the matter of rather you want to live in a place with freedom or without .
wuma😂
Comparing Tokyo with Shanghai, the biggest disadvantage is that there are too few trees. As for the degree of development, in my opinion, the area is larger in Tokyo, but the high-tech applications in Shanghai are more extensive, because there are more than 300,000 Japanese in Shanghai alone. or more.
你的意思是说，上海科技发达，是因为有日本人帮助？
But,but,but......what about the big one that's way overdue now?😅
which one? :)
@@KajaKubicka the big one that everyone in Tokyo is dreading.....the mega earthquake!
Tsunami & Eruption of Mt. Fuji
Shanghai is nowhere near the same level as Tokyo. Been to both in the last 4 months and was not that impressed by Shanghai despite all the economic growth it’s experienced in recent times. Sure there are some nice buildings here and there but the rest of the place just seemed old and not aesthetic. 2 months after visiting Shanghai, I revisited Tokyo again and it made me realise how huge and exciting Tokyo is (made Shanghai seem like a small town). But what really sets the two apart is the intangible. Tokyo has a vibe that excites you and makes you feel like a first world mega city, Shanghai doesn’t. Tokyo wins by miles
Shanghai is not small by size, it's even bigger than London
Tokyo has no centralplace. Every areas are like center.
Tokyo kota yang Luar biasa🎉🎉
Been to both cities，The biggest difference，as a tourist, you will really like Tokyo at first,everything is made very carefull and unic,but if you live there for more than three months, you will feel a lot of pressure , a little boring,stranger.But Shanghai,it is another very extreme opsite example，at the beginning，you will feel hard whelming and unable to adapt to life, if you live there for more than three months, you will find the diversity,internationalization， convenience, and rapid development , the more time ,the more dependency.
interesting ;)
Yes exactly you have point ☺
lol it' s the problen of adaption
LOL
Another biased comment from China 😂
The biggest difference is not what you can easily see, but people and lifestyle. You never wanna live in a communist country without freedom regardless of how developed a city looks at first sight. People are not developed enough in the country. No manners and lack of morality cause nosiness, dirtiness and cloud with chaos.
In regards to the price, Inflation rate is not high in Tokyo compared the most of major cities around the world. If you earn American $, Tokyo is unbelievably affordable.
A sinophobic weeb. America is much dirtier, more chaotic and more dangerous compared to China.
自由跟一个外国游客有什么关系？ 你需要参与选举吗？你在乎这个国家的发展吗？不在乎这些就跟你没有关系。
你最好是在中国生活一段时间之后再评论，因为你生活一段时间就不会说出共产主义国家这种词汇，因为你只有你在西方媒体有偏见的新闻里才能听到（You'd better live in China for a while before making comments, because after living for a while, you won't use the word Communist country, because you can only hear it in biased news of Western media.）
@@duaneslife4016 I’ve studied and lived in Beijing University for summer about 3 months with other international students and Chinese friends from American University. It was nice and fun, but I also felt no freedom of speech as well. Some of my friends in Hong Kong now can never talk freely about negative things about CCP and democracy.
Also, if you check rankings of quality of life online made by international institutes none of Chinese cities can compete Tokyo. Not saying it’s bad to live in China just saying there are better places out here on earth. Trust me bro been to China 5 times.
🤔🤫🤔Looks old and electrical cables all over.
nooo
Kunming > Tokyo >> Shanghai
昆明不是到处都贫民窟吗？
@@bellaming9224 ni zhu de di fang lian pin min ku dou buru, hao can a
中仍在快速发展，未来可以比日本更发达，但是日本的一切都是一成不变的，甚至开始走下坡路了。中国是一个有激情的国家。（China is still developing rapidly and can be more developed than Japan in the future, but everything in Japan is unchanging and even starting to decline. China is a passionate country.）
I thought Tokyo was cool until I got to Shanghai, sorry but not sorry 😂
;))
haven’t been to Tokyo yet but after reading all the comments here I decided to Visit Seoul instead Tokyo.
Yes, yes, you should avoid Tokyo & Kyoto, over tourism there.
Prob one of wrong decisions you would make in your life 😂
Once studied in Shanghai and now live in Tokyo. I would say yes Tokyo is cool at the first 2 months , but after 2 months, it start to be boring. Everything is almost the same everyday. It doesn't change as fast as Shanghai.
How can this city be boring? :(
@@KajaKubickaThe longer you stay, the more depressing and boring it becomes. It’s not as energetic and casual as Shanghai, because I’ve been there.
I admit that Japan is sinking, people are becoming poor & depressed, many tourists are visiting because of high quality in spite of the price (weak JPY).
I'm just missing food such as Unagi, Tonkatsu, Sushi, Ramen, Yakiniku, Gyudon, Takoyaki, Onigiri, Sandwich, Tempra, Yakitori, Curry rice and so on. lol
If you think fashion is good in Tokyo wait till you go to Seoul 😮💨
Chongqing is the biggest city in terms of population 32 million
If you come to seoul , you are surfrise
Seoul in korea is better than tokyo
*b😂sintang* 🐕
lol…
Because of Kdrama 😂
