A Day in My Life in Tokyo | Shinjuku Hidden Park

I'm a 42-year-old Japanese woman. Since last year, I've been living in Tokyo with my American husband and our Italian Greyhound, Echo. Today, we visited Shinjuku Central Park, a lesser-known park in Shinjuku. The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, one of Shinjuku's iconic landmarks, is nearby. It's a beautiful green space surrounded by the city's skyscrapers, offering a nice balance of nature and urban scenery. The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building also hosts a daily projection mapping show called "TOKYO Night & Light." If you ever have a chance to visit Shinjuku, I highly recommend checking it out. It's completely free! I filmed the atmosphere of the event, so I hope this video gives you an idea of what it's like. After that, we visited Kojima Nishi-Shinjuku, a pet specialty store where you can bring your pets inside! They had a great selection of pet products, and we had a lot of fun exploring the store! I hope you find this video helpful! Shinjuku Central Park https://maps.app.goo.gl/LNqoyAKtJ8p8G... TOKYO Night & Light https://maps.app.goo.gl/6FNWUiBWRxbv5...
