How Many Times Is Enough?

Since 2011 till now, aku dah berkunjung ke 5 buah bandar besar di 5 buah negara. Some ada yang aku lawat sampai tiga kali. So, how many times baru puas hati aku ni?

Tokyo

Paris

London

Seoul

Seoul, selang setahun pada 2011, 2013 dan 2015. Each 4 days/ trip.
Tokyo, 3 tahun berturut-turut pada 2012, 2013 dan 2014. Each trip 4 days.
Hongkong, 2 tahun berturut 2015 & 2016. Each trip also 4 days each.
Paris sekali pada 2014. 4 days.
London sekali, tahun 2014. 5 days.

So, cukup tak?

London cukup lawat sekali.
Paris masih boleh diberi peluang sekali lagi kot, lawat sekali pun cukup sebenarnya.
Seoul after 1st trip pun dah cukup
Hongkong sekali kali lawat dah cukup.
Tokyo, every year pun takde masalah. Tapi actually 3 trip dah cukup dah cuma nak repeat jek.

Ideal days tuk lawat semua tempat in each city? Aku suggest...
London 4 hari
Paris 2 hari, 3 kalau masuk disneyland
Hongkong 2 or 3 hari kalau masuk Disneyland,
Seoul 3 hari or 4 kalau nak ke Nami. 5 or 6 kalau + ke Jeju
Tokyo 6-8 hari considering nak cover city itself, gardens & disneyland
Asal masuk theme park je kena ada up 1 day

Main attraction of each? Pada aku personally
London. I heard about London since what, since I was born perhaps. It is closed to our heart and the fact that my husband and I used to live there when we were little.
Paris. A city of Eiffel, romantic-ness and cuisine, that is what we always heard about the city. Trust me, tetiba jek jadi romantik kalau kat Paris... muhuhahaha
Seoul. K-popers? Cosmetic crazy. K-drama. Plastic Surgery. Autumn color
Hongkong. Cuti santai.
Tokyo. The people itself, the crowd and compactness, the beautiful garden, Hanami, the colorful autumn, anime crazy, tech crazy, crazily clean, sailormoon, doremon, otromen, naruto, son goku, bezita, gundam  anyone?

Set back? Any?
London. Old. Yes. Old old except for some new attraction like Emirate cable car, The Shard etc
Paris. Hancing dengan kencing! esp underground. Ugly graffiti all around.
Seoul. Crazily busy airport or none maybe
Hongkong. 'Ulat2' kedai makan halal. Unfriendly people.
Tokyo. Gempa bumi.

I Miss Tokyo!!!

Tokyo always is my favorite place to visit and I don't even mind if I go there all the time for vacation. What do you go Tokyo for? For me the reason will be watching. Be it people watching, nature watching what so ever. There are many things you can do there.

1. People watching
Japan people is fascinating to watch, especially their youth. Harajuku will be the perfect spot to people-watching. Don't lose a chance to encounter anime-wearing youngsters. Be it Naruto, Sailor Moon.. You will have your chance meetint them there. Just don't roll your eyes! Or you could go to Akhihabara for the same reason too or Shibuya for people-flooding-watching. There were so many people crossing the Shibuya Crossing every time the traffic stop. You'll be amazed by the view.

2. Nature Watching
Inside Tokyo itself, there are more than 10 beautiful gardens that you can visit like Shinjuku Garden, Hamarikyu Garden, . No. You don't have any idea how beautiful they were if you only have a vision of Malaysian garden inside your head. Go during Autumn... mahvelous!

3. Concrete Forrest Watching
Be it the view from Tokyo Sky Tree, Tokyo Tower or Tokyo Metropolitan Building, trust me. Wow will be the only words you say. Don't expect super-architectly-build buildings. No. They don't have it much in Tokyo. All you see is a simple building, small in size but fully functional, very clean and well maintained.
 

4. Anime Anime Anime
Go to Akhihabara. I've been to Tokyo three times and already meet Naruto, Doraemon, Bezita, Prince of tennis, Goku, Hello Kity, Otromen, Gundam.. All in human size or bigger. If you are not a fan of replica, do No.1.. You can also go to Odaiba to meet Gundam and Doraemon or Ikebukuro for J-World and meet Goku, Bezita, One-piece etc or visit Shonen Jump Shop at Tokyo Station and Tokyo Dome City.

5. Enjoy clean and small of everything.
Small building. Small road. Small lorry. Clean wet market. The cleanliness is too much clean, I tell you!!.

6. The Four Seasons Of Happiness
Winter is cold, summer is cozy but autumn colors will melt your heart. The yellow color of gingko and red color of leaves will mesmerized you. When comes to spring, the pink sakura... It will blow you mind!

Experience Tokyo In KL

Antara cara kita boleh experience Tokyo in KL yeklah

1. Masuk kedai serbaneka like Daiso, kedai 100 yen dan Komonoya
A shop of Japan, walaupon barang dia made in China. Kat Japan depa jual barang suma 100 yen + tax. Barang dia sama jek dengan yang kat mesia ni so takyah la sampai ke Tokyo takat nak berkunjung ke Daiso.

2. Masuk Uniqlo
Kalau nak lagi Jipun, beli Kimono. Tapi Kimono ni jual at selected Uniqlo outlet je kot..

3. Masuk Japanese Owned Mall macam Aeon, Sogo, Isetan
Jangan takat masuk. P lawat sekali section food yang jual makanan jipun beli wasabi ka, oknomyaki ka..

4. Berkunjung Ke Pavillion
Tingkat berapa aku tak hengat sangat, cari Tokyo street. Ada special area dedicated to kedai2 yang ala2 di Jipun gitue.

5. Enjoy makanan Jepun, terutamanya sushi dekat Shushi King or Sushi Zanmae

6. Pakai make-up brand Kate
Brand ni kalau tengok dekat the packaging memang made in Japan oke!

7. P 7-Eleven

8.Pakai keta Jipun, barang letrik Jipun dan yang seangkatan

Ok. Enough for now.

Bila Rindu : Tokyo

Tokyo always is special in my heart. Penah buat kerja gila melawat Tokyo tiga tahun berturut-turut, 2012 -2014 tapi hati tak pernah bosan. Apa yang aku paling suka tentang Tokyo? Entahla tapi berada di Tokyo adalah satu perasaan yang sangat best dan puas hati. Masih mengintai peluang untuk ke Tokyo lagi. Nampaknya 2017 la kot T_T

Tokyo adalah sebuat metroplitan yang sangat besar. Tapi yang paling sangat aku kagum, Tokyo sangat bersih!

My Story Of Tokyo Disneyland

Tokyo Disneyland ni bukan terletak di Tokyo tetapi di Chiba perfecture yang bersebelahan dengan Tokyo. Ada banyak option ke sini yang boleh dipilih dari bus sampailah ke teksi. Macam kami, we all opt untuk naik subway for the reason it is mudah lagi memudahkan. I suggest before ke sini, lawat la website http://www.tokyodisneyresort.jp/en/access/.

TDL ni dah dibuka since 15 April 1983. Kata en wiki, this is the first DL ever built outside The US. Rega tiket? I bought directly from Disneyland Tokyo website, maybe there are cheaper option tapi malas nak fikir. So I bought a Starlight Pass at 4900 yen/ person. Si tecit tak kena tiket sebab lom 4 tahun. Ada beberapa jenis pass offered, 1 day, 2 days, 3day, 4 days, senior pass, starlight pass & after 6 passport. Starlight pass cuma valid after 3pm weekend & public holiday whislt after 6 valid on weekday after 6pm. Why go so late? maybe depa tanak main & just nak enjoy parade jek kot. One yang paling ditunggu-tunggu is One Upon A Time Fantasy Land show started around 6pm di Cinderella Castle (Castle Forecourt). Time ni bersinar2 la casle si Mickey tu or untuk enjoy nightime parade.

 

Tokyo Disneyland ni divided into 2 park, amusment which called Disneyland & the other is Disneysea. Both kena beli tiket separately & tak ble masuk on the same day oke! Macamana nak kemari? from wherever you are pom kena turun dekat Maihama Station. Daripada Maihama Station nilah baru kome tukar ke station Resort Gateaway station yang terletak bersebelahan je dengan Maihama Station. Kome boleh jalan kaki je la!

Dari Resort Gateaway barulah naik train Disney Resort. Disney Resort ni is a kawasan consist of Disneyland, Disneysea & hotel. It is quite a big area. Tren run one way je. Dari Resort Gateaway singgah ke Disneyland St dulu & mengambil masa 2 minit, next station is Bayside Station for those yang nak turun dekat Tokyo Disney Resort Official Hotel, next station baru Disneysea. Tiket kome boleh beli single ticket one loop full atau beli daypass yang membolehkan kome turun naik & keluar masuk those 4 station yang ada dalam Disney Resort.

My Story Of Harajuku District, Shibuya

Deme ni, time aku nak ke sini deme sume pun yebok juge. Ingatkan ini ramai, tengok2 kat dalam laaagi ramai macam harem. 3 kali datang Tokyo, kali ke tiga baru dapat tembus oke! 

Apa yang ada dekat sini? Harajuku is a district in Shibuya ya sepanjang dari JR Harajuku St sampai la ke Omotesando St. Antara yang famous dekat sini yelah Takeshita Dori.. biasa kalau orang muda macam we olls ni 😛 refer Harajuku, street ni la yang we olls maksudkan. TD ni shopping street for youngsters.. it is just one straight street yang penuh kedai kiri kanannya. Kalau nak tengok cosplay budak2 remaja Tokyo, di sini la tempatnya but sangat sangat sangat crowded.. memang pening! Kalau xde tujuan tak yah la kemari ye. Better go Omotesando cuci mata window shopping. 

My Story Of Omotesando, Shibuya

Kalau ke Tokyo, one of must lepak area yekla road between Omotesando Station & Meiji Jingumae Station sepanjang 1km. Kalau nak ke Harajuku, aku prefer turun dekat Omotesando St & jalan sampai la ke Meiji Jingumae St tapi kalau nak lepak2  & ambil angin petang aku prefer ke Harajuku dulu kemudian baru ke sinin.

Apa yang ada dekat sini? shopping? Yes kalau kau kaya, no kalau papa macam aku. Among things yang aku selalu buat disini yekla melepak & people watching. Sepanjang jalan ada place untuk kome melabuhkan munggung + ada free wifi area. Kalau datang time nak masuk maghrib, romintik wa sakap lu esp kalau datang time autumn. Sajuk2 gitu. Most of the building dekat Tokyo ni boleh kata design kotak je tapi kalau nak enjoy view bangunan2 yang lawa, sila la ke mari.Among building yang lawa like bangunan Hugo Boss & Todds ni.

 

Crowds? Pergh, memang ramai. Kadang tu bersesak-sesak. Tapi pegi mana-mana pun dekat Tokyo, memang sesak tu lah view utama yang kome akan nampak. Kalau kat mesia cengitu, haarammmm la aku nak pegi. Ahahahaksss

Kalau sampai ke mari boleh la singgah dekat Kiddy Land, kedai menan. Macam aku ni, cuma mampu tengok je la sebab menan depa ni memang mahai sunggoh! Tapi kalau nak beli ori Hello Kitty, Gundam, Rillakuma, Doremong or apo2 yo lah yang berasal dari negara matahari terbit ni, invest la sikit kan ;p Kedai ni ada 4 or 5 tingkat kalau tak silap aku. Sume mainan oke!

My Story Of Shibuya Crossing

Gila kan!!??! So many people macam ada keramaian but no! Ini adalah view biasa yang kome akan nampak dekat Shibuya Crossing. Kalau ke Tokyo tapi tak menjejakkan kaki kemari, memang tak lengkap la pelancongan kome tu. Ahaks!

Apakah Shibuya Crossing ni? Selalu kalau dalam Hollywood movie, dorang suka shoot dekat sini untuk menggambarkan Japang. Kata si wiki it is a pedestrian crossing system that stops all vehicular traffic and allows pedestrians to cross an intersection in every direction, including diagonally, at the same time. Dia punya crossing ni dari kiri kanan depan belakang semua boleh cross.  Ini ghopenya kalau kosong.

Lepas je melintas, aku perasan tetiba orang yang ramai yang tadinya gila bebeng ramai yang sama-sama melintas macam dah tak ramai tapi once traffic stop & orang ready nak melintas semula, alih2 berbondong2 semula orang. 3 kali kemari, 3 kali juga aku bingung mana datang yang ramai-ramai ni.

Crossing ni terletak di Shibuya. Kata si wiki juga The name "Shibuya" is also used to refer to the shopping district which surrounds Shibuya Station, one of Tokyo's busiest railway stations. This area is known as one of the fashion centers of Japan, particularly for young people, and as a major nightlife area. Kat sini memang area shopping kiri kanan depan belakang. A mall like Shibuya 109, 109 mens, Shibuya Hikarie etc. Kalau nak jumpa anjing Hachiko yang femes dengan kesetiaan kepada tuanya yang tidak berbelah bagi, kat sini la tempatnya. As overall, Shibuya ni besar kawasannya tapi kalau orang kata g Shibuya tu referring to this area actually, which revolve around Shibuya Station. This station can be reached kalau kome naik JR East, Private Railways & Subways. Antara subway yang ada yekla Ginza, Fukutoshin & Hanzomon.

Where is the best place to enjoy the view? there are cafe like STarbuck or L'Occitane but dont. Pegi mana-mana di seluruh Tokyo adalah sangat ramai orang. By ramai sangat I mean memang banyak gila babeng & bersesak2. We may enjoy the view for free here.

This is a link bridge between Tokyu & Shibuya Mark City, carik je kompom jumpa la tu. Kalau rajin, dah alang-alang berjalan, boleh je kome jalan kaki sampai ke Omotesando  to enjoy architectural view of Tokyo  then terus ke Takeshita Dori, Harajuku.

My Story Of Minato Ward

Minato ward terletak di belah bawah kanan Chiyoda ward. Among yang pemes disini yekla Roppongi area, half of Odaiba (half lagi belong to Koto ward). Minato ni ada banyak districts, all togehther ada 31 consist of Akasaka, Atago, Azabudai, Azabu-Jūban, Azabu-Mamianachō, AzabuNagasakachō, Hamamatsuchō, Higashi-Azabu, Higashi-Shinbashi, Kaigan, Kita-Aoyama, Kōnan, Minami-Aoyama, Minami-Azabu, Mita, Moto-Akasaka, Moto-Azabu, Nishi-Azabu, Nishi-Shinbashi, Daiba, Roppongi, Shiba Kōen, Shiba, Shibadaimon, Shibaura, Shinbashi, Shiodome, Shirokane, Shirokanedai, Takanawa dan Toranomon. Tapi yang si wiki kata notebale cumafew je kot inclusive of Odaiba, Shinbashi, Roppongi, Toranomon, Aoyama, Azabu, Hamamatsuchō, Tamachi

Apa yang ada di sini? Kebanyakan embassy beroperasi di sini, pulau buatan kegemaran hamba Odiaba juga terletak disini selain Tokyo tower, Roppongi Hills dan Hamamatsucho Station, terminal for the Tokyo Monorail to Haneda Airport.

Hotel disini? Hmm.. i'll advise no kot.
