  Stand in the middle of the crazy crosswalk in front of Shibuya station as hundreds of people zigzag around you... Explore some design stores (IDEE, Muji, Conran Shop) and pick up something you do not need... Walk through the lush forest paths near Meiji Jingu... Feel how behind you are in fashion as you walk through Omotesando and Harajuku.... Wonder why there is a Tabacco and Salt Museum (near Shibuya/Harajuku).... Wet your appetite by purusing the food section in any basement of a Japanese department store... Get your spice on in Koreatown Shinjuku... Grab a cocktail at the top of a hotel bar and take in the night lights of Tokyo...
