2025 Shinagawa Ward Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

Shinagawa might not be on every tourist’s radar, but it’s a hidden gem! A major transport hub with bullet trains zooming by, plus chill vibes along the waterfront. I loved exploring the quiet temples, cute local eateries, and even the aquarium nearby. Perfect for a quick escape from the busy city while still being super convenient! 🐟🚄

I live in Shinagawa, so google searched the last day of itinerary and decided to go to AEON style that opens at 08:00! The supermarket on the ground floor of B1 has a lot of things to do! There is also tax free after shopping. There are cosmetics, ABCmart, and Doll Paradise upstairs! tax free Inspection and packaging takes time! Finally, I bought a sashimi bowl and headed back to Hong Kong!

When I couldn't find a place to stay because of the high demand for hotels due to the overlap of events and activities, I found this hotel. It is a reasonably priced hotel near the Gotanda station in Tokyo, called "Hinode Hotel". There is a supermarket and convenience store in the vicinity. There are many stores that are open until late at night, such as Don Quijote and fast food restaurants. The facilities and equipment have the feel of a long-established hotel that has been in business for many years, and it has a nostalgic feel to it. There is also an exhibition of sumo ranking lists. Please note that there is a curfew from midnight to 6:30 in the morning, and you cannot go out. There are vending machines in the hotel, so you can use them if you cannot go out. Please be sure to remember to leave your key at the front desk when you go out.

Tokyo Doujiang Life is a popular restaurant where you can enjoy an authentic Taiwanese breakfast. Even on weekday mornings, the restaurant is always full to capacity. It seems that they also hand out numbered tickets on holidays. I ordered the most popular dish, salty soy milk (shen doujiang), a soy milk soup with a mild, slightly sour taste. I added spring onion omelet (congdan) to my simple Taiwanese-style bread (xiaoping). It's also delicious topped with meat floss. It opens from 8am on weekdays, so it's perfect for those days when you want to get up early and make the most of your day. *As of July 2022 ■Address 1F MKY Building, 1-20-3 Nishigotanda, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo ■Budget Approx. 1,000 yen per person ■Menu Salty soy milk soup: 550 yen Taiwanese-style baked bread: 200 yen, etc. #East Japan #Gourmet

I walked along the cherry blossom trees that I had seen while walking from Gotanda Station along the train tracks, and then I went further north until I reached the intersection with the Shuto Expressway. I was surprised by the beautiful cherry blossom trees. There is a top-class famous spot called Meguro River nearby, but there are other places to see cherry blossoms in Tokyo. #sakura #gotanda

I came across this row of cherry blossom trees while heading north from Gotanda Station along the train tracks. Although the flowers are a little uneven and small, it's a unique spot where you can see the scenery of a railway and cherry blossoms. A train raced past the cherry blossoms, which sparkled beautifully in the morning sunlight. #sakura #railroad #gotanda

I walked along the cherry blossom-lined street near the west exit of Gotanda Station. The cherry blossoms here had bloomed early, so the leaves were starting to fall. This made for a beautiful snowstorm of cherry blossoms. The road nearby was covered in a carpet of cherry blossom petals. #sakura #photogenic #gotandastation

City Tower Musashikoyama is a one-minute walk from Musashikoyama Station. It is located in a redeveloped area in front of the station and opened in the summer of 2021 as a new landmark in the Ebara district. About half of the building is occupied by tenants, but it is convenient as it also has a pharmacy and a convenience store. On the second floor is the Shinagawa Ward Office's community center and meeting hall! It is extremely easy to live there. It also houses Bio c' Bon, an organic supermarket from Paris. It is fun just to walk around and look at the stylish items. #Musashikoyama #trip2022

Traditional Japanese New Year decorations. They are displayed on the altars and entrances of each household. A store will open at Gotanda Station for the end of the year only.

Right at the start of the new year, Tokyo was enveloped in a snowy landscape. The snow had been falling little by little and was starting to pile up a little by midday. There were few people around Takanawadai Station, and snow was starting to pile up on the roads. Please be careful as the subway entrances are slippery. The New Year's decorations and snow are very beautiful. Here's a taste of Tokyo's snowy landscape, which you may or may not be able to enjoy once a year. #snowscape

#0yentravelnovember #travelwithme At Soba Kappo Kurata, you can enjoy the taste of a chef who has honed his skills at a famous Japanese restaurant. Dashi is a good way to start a meal during the change of seasons when you are more likely to fall ill. It is said that bonito dashi helps to recover from fatigue and release heat trapped in the body. It has even been reported that the feeling of relief you get when you take a bite improves your mental state. • Helped by the power of the dashi, I ate my fill of delicious food. I loved the winter melon hidden under the conger eel. I also liked the generous use of condiments such as myoga, shiso leaves, and ginger. • Let's not forget how new and delicious cheese soba was, with soba noodles coated with balsamic and olive oil and cheese on top.
