The Local Side of Shinjuku | Tokyo Most Tourists Miss

Everyone knows Shinjuku. The neon, the crowds, Godzilla looking down over Kabukicho. It is the busiest station in the world. But that is the Shinjuku tourists see. I wanted to find the other one. The quiet streets a few minutes away. The super markets where locals actually buy their dinner. The garden that are not Shinjuku Gyoen. So I spent a day walking, away from the crowds, looking for the real Shinjuku. My Kamakura travel guide: https://tokyoken.gumroad.com/l/kamaku...
