Great coat and a cool look!
I'm staying at the Tokyo Station Hotel this spring, so I really appreciate the station tour. Thank You!
Great Job!
Thank for the insight of tokyo
Great station guide. Thanks for that! I love exploring the vast underground malls in Tokyo. When I went to Seoul it was obvious the architect that built the Marunouchi station was the same who built the old Seoul station. Have a fabulous week! I'm always happy to see another video from you. 💙
Your guides are sooooo helpful. Anybody going through Tokyo station should bookmark this for their trip and watch it a couple times
I need that Tokyo Station Pikachu. Is this the first stop for more Tokyo videos?
日本人の田舎者ですが今度TOKYO Stationに行く予定なので助かります。
I stayed 200 metres from Tokyo Station. It's was great place to walk around as I waited for my room to be ready. So much to see and the food is spectacular.
you can speak Japanese well because you are good at pronouncing Japanese words, Aren't you?
Thanks Abby. Please also do the same detailed guide for Shinjuku St and Shinagawa St if you're still in Tokyo 😊. I am impressed with your Japanese words pronunciation on Shinkansen explanation 👍.
Very helpful guide! I spent half a day trying to make sense of the layout of Tokyo Station back in November during our Tokyo-Kyoto trip. It's so easy to get lost. Thanks for making such a great guide. This is so helpful especially for first timers planning to ride the shinkansen or take the buses there. I hope you keep making these useful videos. Much love!

If you are not going on the train, do you still need a ticket to get to the atrium area and bento stores? I noticed you used a ticket to get to the area.
Another helpful video. Thanks! And I love your outfit.
Just want to say thank you so much for your video guides – I stumbled across your channel as I’m travelling to Japan soon and your guides around the stations and sights are so helpful. They are truly invaluable and will make things far less stressful!
So glad you are doing these very informative and helpful videos. I have watched dozens of videos and no one is explaining everything in great detail like you do. Thank you sooo much!😊

I always enjoy your video!. fun fact: 0:35 "Yaesu" is named after "Jan Joosten van Lodensteyn", a Dutch trader who lived in this area in early 1600's. He was a diplomatic adviser of Shogun and given residence in this area. Japanese could not pronounce his name "Jan Joosten" correctly, so he was called "Yaesu" for short.
Dutch sailor, Jan Joosten(1556-1623)
The Japanese people respected him for his vast knowledge.
So the place where his house was located came to be called Yaesu. (That's how his name sounded to the Japanese).
Yaesu represents the close relationship between Japan and Netherlands in the Middle Ages.
Excellent video. I was just there last week and wish I had this guide. I managed to find Ramen & Character streets. But, there is so much more to see. I'm definitely going to save this video for future reference. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!
I live a dozen kilometers from Tokyo Station, but I am a Japanese who passes through Tokyo Station but almost never goes there.
Even for a Japanese person, your video is informative.👍👍👍
東京駅は天皇の駅として特別な位置にあり、中央玄関は皇室専用の貴賓室ににつながっています。
近年は皇族の外出に使用されることは滅多にないですが、各国の新任大使が信任状捧呈式に向かう際はここで待機し、天皇から派遣された専用の馬車(または車)で皇居まで送迎されます。
スケジュールはその都度宮内庁などのウェブサイトで発表されますので、運が良ければ騎馬隊に護衛された馬車の行列が見物できるでしょう。
Tokyo Station is in a special position as an emperor's station, and the central entrance leads to a VIP room dedicated to the imperial family.
In recent years, it is rarely used for the royal family to go out, but when the new ambassadors of each country go to the credentials dedication ceremony, they wait here and are picked up to the Imperial Palace in a special carriage (or car) dispatched by the emperor.
The schedule will be announced each time on websites such as the Imperial Household Agency, so if you're lucky, you'll be able to see the procession of carriages escorted by the cavalry.
Dont worry, Im Japanese but never reached the correct exits from the under maze on every single try.
Crawl out onto the ground, and walk around to find your destination.
Tips: Tokyo station has a few exclusive waiting rooms. we commons cant use them and the Emperor of Japan, his family members, or foreign ambassadors are only allowed. and years ago, to be the president of the Japanese National Railways needed to be the station master at Tokyo station.
There is also a medical clinic and pharmacy on the Yaesu side if needed before leaving to the next destination
I would say a similar guide but for Shinjuku Station would be great but with how many exits that place has the video might end up being 6 hours long.
And you keep giving us Japan lovers more great informative videos! Thank you and we hope to see you again soon.
So impact full! Great job thanks a million
Thanks so much for this video. 2 questions for you. 1. When you went into the Tohoku gate you used a ticket, then you showed where the gate was to get to the Tokaido side. If you have tickets for Osaka per the Tokaido gate, do you need to pay first to get into the Tohoku gate? And 2. Do you recommend either Suica or PASMO digital IC card over the other? Thanks!
Hey, what are the mask expecatation/mandates there now?
