I’ve stayed at APA Asakusa for a few days and used the subway frequently, the 72-hour Tokyo Subway Ticket is an excellent option. It’s affordable, easy to use, and provides convenience, making it perfect for a tourist-focused itinerary like me.

You have to sit on the ninth floor to check in and then take the escalator down to the eighth floor. It's not big inside but it's easy to take pictures. There are many beautiful fish tanks and lights, but the only type of fish is goldfish. There is also a souvenir shop.

Amazing venue with great attractions to see and experience throughout. Would highly recommended if you are in Tokyo. This is better than the planets one in my opinion, this one is bigger and there's more to do in this one!

How can you not eat wagyu beef when you come to Japan? This is my second time here and I still highly recommend this place. There are many cuts to choose from. You can tell the waiter not to order the appetizer (which is ridiculous) hahaha. The texture of the oil cuts through your mouth. The wagyu beef is really delicious. You can taste various parts in this shop~~
