Tourism

An emerging tourist destination

Shinjuku is a tourist attraction. It is the commuting capital of Tokyo, and
contains the busiest train station in the world. To
the west, there’s an office district with the Tokyo
Metropolitan Government Office at its center. To the
east, there’s a district with long-established
department stores, cinemas and theaters. Shinjuku
Gyoen is a park originally built as the garden for the
Imperial Household. It is quite famous as a venue for
cherry-blossom viewing in March and April. In
Shinjuku, many restaurants operate all night, and
districts such as Omoide Yokocho (Memory Lane) or
Shinjuku Golden Machi have back streets filled with
tiny restaurants and bars that reflect each owner’s
unique taste and style.
