Hello, everyone, I’m minmin. Today we’re taking you to Ikebukuro . Ikebukuro, together with Shinjuku and Shibuya, is known as the three sub-centers of Tokyo, so Ikebukuro is also a very important traffic artery in Tokyo . You can see this behind me. The entire building is a department store , so there are actually a lot of department stores, electrical stores, drugstores, etc., which are very easy to visit. It is a tourist attraction that many Taiwanese tourists love. I would like to add and explain why Ikebukuro is called Ikebukuro. It is said that there used to be a big pond called "Fukuro Pond". Over the years, it was renamed Ikebukuro. The mascot of Ikebukuro is an owl , so in fact, you can see owls everywhere on the road in Ikebukuro. Why is the mascot of Ikebukuro the owl? Actually, the Japanese word for Ikebukuro is いけぶくろ, and the Japanese word for owl is フクロウ, so the following syllables are very similar, so the owl becomes the mascot of Ikebukuro. Today we will help you plan The one-day trip to Ikebukuro will take you all over Ikebukuro. Let's go Ikebukuro Station East Exit. As soon as you come out and cross the road , you can see a Matsumoto Kiyoshi building behind me , and then walk about fifty steps away and there is a whole Don Quixote next to it. So it’s really good to go shopping here. I can go shopping for a whole day after crossing a road . Don’t forget that we have filmed Don Quixote and Matsumoto Kiyoshi before . There are coupons for everyone . So Before you go shopping, don’t forget to refer to our old videos. If you want to come to Japan to buy electrical appliances, Ikebukuro is also a good choice besides Akihabara. Because you can see behind me, there are four buildings in total including Yamada Appliances and BIC CAMERA . It’s super easy to shop around . Don’t forget that we have also filmed videos introducing Yamada Denki and BIC CAMERA before . There are super discount coupons in the videos. Remember to review before you come here. Let’s take a look at the videos we’ve made before before you can buy them. Let me introduce the BIC CAMERA behind me. It ’s said to be the main building. I don’t know if you have any impression. Every time you visit BIC CAMERA, there is a very brainwashing theme song for them. It is said that the lyrics of each branch of BIC CAMERA are different. The lyrics in front of the theme song that is broadcast here in this building are written to say that Ikebukuro is a very magical place. When you come to shop next time, friends , don’t forget to listen to it . There is also a very hidden BIC CAMERA branch opposite the BIC CAMERA store. It is a branch store that specializes in selling cameras and computers. I think everyone who comes to Japan must love shopping here. Camera supplies , so everyone who comes to BIC CAMERA in Ikebukuro, don’t forget to also go to the camera shop opposite the main building. There is a whole building where you can buy cameras. The east exit of Ikebukuro Station is the best place to visit in Ikebukuro in my opinion because of you Look at the entire Seibu Department Store here , which stretches so endlessly that the camera can’t capture it. In addition to the super-large MUJI products , the stationery lover’s favorite LOFT , there are all kinds of clothes , food, souvenirs, etc. It is suitable for the whole family to go shopping together , and here is PARCO. There are many clothing brands in PARCO, so it is also very suitable for girls aged 25 to 40. You can see the map here. We walked out from the east exit of Ikebukuro Station and followed this A Sunshine Road goes straight to the end and you will come to Sunshine City in Ikebukuro. Sunshine City is also super easy to visit. If you come to Ikebukuro with the whole family, you must remember to come here. Ikebukuro Sunshine City because Ikebukuro Sunshine City is here It is a super-large compound facility. In addition to the aquarium, there is also a high-altitude observatory, and there is also Namco’s theme park, Pokémon Center, Snoopy, and a variety of character stores. Children will definitely love this place. The most distinctive feature of the aquarium in Sunshine City is that it is located on the top floor, so it is very beautiful . In addition to the beautiful scenery, it also holds some activities from time to time. If you want to participate , you can watch them on DM. The time of the event will be supplemented. Next to the Pokémon Center in Sunshine City, there is a super cute Pokémon Cafe that will use Pikachu and other cute characters to make cakes and other desserts. If you have a chance, you must go to see it. I just I ordered a ポケッフル (Pokémon muffin) which is super cute in the shape of Pikachu. It will have a different random packaging bag every time. The super cute ears have a bit of chocolate taste , and the whole thing feels like a squashed muffin, so eat it It tastes a bit like biscuit and tastes like honey. Personally, I think it’s more cute than delicious , but the environment and atmosphere of the whole store is really good , so I recommend everyone to come and try it out of Sunshine City if you have a chance. One road is commonly known as Otome Road (おとめロード). Have you ever heard that Akihabara is a man-oriented anime paradise, and Ikebukuro is a female-oriented anime paradise. There are a lot of anime-related specialties on this Otome Road. In addition to selling anime peripherals, the store also sells a lot of doujinshi or COSPLAY related products, etc. So anime fans must remember to come to this otome road for lunch. We came to びっくりドンキー I believe everyone should know the recent Hamburg Ranked in the top spot in Japan, the one we brought you here today is a well-known chain store of hamburger steaks in Japan , and the price of this one is also very cheap. All the prices are around 1,000 yen. The one I ordered now is said to be 1,000 yen. One of the very popular dishes in this restaurant is called Cheese Pot Burger Steak, so it is filled with melted cheese on top of the burger steak. The cheese lover will definitely go crazy. Come and eat it right away. Eat its burgers ! The steak is not a very solid one , but you can taste the aroma of the meat, and the cheese sauce is really delicious. Although it is not a stringy cheese , it also tastes very strong overall , and its lunch set is available every weekday. Come to the store before five o'clock in the afternoon You can enjoy its lunch set. The lunch set will come with an extra bowl of miso soup, so overall it is very cost-effective. I recommend it to friends who want to save money but want to eat hamburger steak. The grandscape behind me is also Ikebukuro The newly opened in 2019 should be considered new, right? When it first opened, it was called Q plaza, and now it has been renamed. Don’t get me wrong. Its feature is that there is a CAPCOM coffee shop and CAPCOM store on the third floor . CAPCOM game fans should Everyone knows that it is Kuaiba, Sengoku BASARA , Monster Hunter, Rockman and other well-known game brands. The coffee shop on the third floor will have irregular character activities. You can also pay attention to it , and then there are other floors. Such as restaurants and restaurants. It is said that there is a movie theater with the largest screen in Japan and 4DX theater facilities. Everyone can come and experience animate . I believe that all anime fans must be familiar with this building. Yes, the animate in Ikebukuro is the main building here. Then it will be reopened in March 2023, and now it has become a nine-story building. All the character peripheral products are super complete here, and some new spaces such as theaters or exhibitions are added here. It will be held from time to time. There are different kinds of activities , so if you want to make a pilgrimage here, don’t forget to go online to see if there are any activities you like recently that you can participate in . We are now at the west exit (north) of Ikebukuro Station. I just came here on the road I heard a lot of friendly Chinese. There are more than 200 Chinese restaurants , Chinese product stores, etc. It is said that because there are many language schools here, the rent is a little bit cheaper, so many people live in Japan. All the Chinese will choose to live in this neighborhood, so this neighborhood has become a gathering place for Chinese in Tokyo. Now the owl we see is called えんゃゃん, it is the mascot here , and there was a slogan just now saying えんゃちん it It is an owl with magical powers , and it is said that if you touch its feet, you will have good luck, because its feet are super cute in the shape of a heart , so if you come, you can also remember to take a photo with えんちゃん or touch it. Good luck with our feet, we have now come to a coffee shop called Xiaoshu tea room , and we ordered strawberry napoleon pie, apple pie and iced black tea, can you see that I am super excited now because their desserts look super delicious and the whole room The atmosphere of the store is great. It has a woody tone , which is very bookish and super cute. There are many small ingenuities throughout the store. You know that when you check out, you actually take this little key card and this is ours. When checking out the table number , etc. , just take this key to checkout. Another feature of this store is that it sells a combination of books and coffee , and the covers of the books it sells can’t be seen. Everything will be wrapped , so it feels like a lottery draw. It’s a super surprise. I like it very much . But because today we will focus on desserts , because the book is all in Japanese, so today we will focus on introducing desserts. Come soon . Eat, eat, I want to eat this apple pie first いただきます Its apples are pickled honey apples, which are quite sweet. I think people who like sweets should love it , but because I personally prefer apple pies that are a little bit sour So I think it’s a bit too sweet , but the taste is great , and its apple pie has a whole apple in it. I remember this dessert just now . I saw that the price was less than 500 yen, so the CP value is actually super high in terms of prices in Tokyo, Japan. It ’s super cost-effective , it’s delicious, and the atmosphere is great. I’m going to eat another dessert, the Strawberry Napoleon Pie. It’s super cute. I really don’t want to eat it. It’s so cute. I think it’s rare to see this kind in Taiwan. It’s really biased. This kind of French dessert is great. Although the crispy skin on the outside is not really crispy and crispy , I think the filling inside it is adjusted just right and it will not be too sweet , and the balance of the whole combination is also good. I highly recommend it to everyone . We are now at the west exit of Ikebukuro Station. This is also a place I personally like to visit because there is a Tobu Department Store behind me . The Tobu Department Store is super large, and there is also UNIQLO, which is popular among tourists. Then there is the LUMINE building behind me. Girls who like Japanese style must come and visit it because there are so many brands that I personally like , such as BEAMS, Boots House, and MOUSSY. It is really a building. You can browse all your favorite Japanese brands , and on the first floor, there is a store of HARBS, a well-known fruit mille-feuille cake in Japan, so don’t forget to visit LUMINE. If you come to Ikebukuro recently, you must pay attention to it. There is no such red bus. The one next to me is its super cute red bus stop . I heard that its designer is the well-known train master Mr. Mitooka Eiji. We have traveled a lot in Kyushu before. The series of JR trains are also designed by him . This train can mainly go around the major attractions in Ikebukuro , and its timetable can also be seen on the Internet, so if you want to take it, you can search it online first. Check the timetable to see if there is any way to match your own time, and then everyone should pay attention to this train. You can’t use transportation cards, so Suica cards or Pasmo cards can’t be used. The cost of each ride is 100 yen, so everyone Remember to prepare change. It’s so cute. The legendary red car has just waited for about 20 minutes and finally arrived. Look at this seat. Every chair is different. It’s super invincible and cute. It has two routes: A and B. Then respectively will be around The big circle around Ikebukuro and the small circle around Ikebukuro, you can look at the attractions you want to go to , then decide which station to take a ride, and then remind everyone that there is no way to collect transportation cards on the bus, so Suica and Pasmo can’t help For the beep card, you must remember to prepare 100 yuan in change cash before you can take the bus to buy a ticket. And because this sightseeing bus mainly hopes that you can sit on it and watch the scenery of the whole Ikebukuro leisurely , so its speed will be a little slower. At the same time It also pays attention to environmental protection , so the design of its entire car is an electric car, so there will be no gas discharge, and it is also very friendly to the environment. For dinner, we came to the noodle house Hulu-lu and just passed by outside. I think this shop is super cute. Another person was queuing up and immediately checked online and found that it turned out to be one of the top 100 famous ramen restaurants in Tokyo for five consecutive years, so I went in and had a look . The one I ordered now is spicy dipping noodles , because this restaurant is not just ordinary ramen. Their tsukemen is also very famous , and every Friday is their tsukemen day, so there is only tsukemen available on Fridays, so everyone can pay attention to it, and you can see that its presentation is different from ordinary ramen. It ’s super cute. The reason for this is because the boss loves Hawaii so much , so the whole store is made in a Hawaiian style, whether it is the appearance, the interior decoration or the style of the ramen, so you see there is an orchid in the ramen, which is super cute , let's eat it right away I ordered a small portion of noodles , but it still feels quite a lot. It’s delicious and spicy , but it’s not the kind that makes your throat uncomfortable. It ’s a bit spicy and spicy in the whole mouth . It’s hard to tell. It’s a bit like spicy instant noodles , but the layers are certainly much richer than instant noodles. I think this restaurant is really strong. It’s worthy of being the top 100 famous ramen restaurants for five consecutive years from 2017 to 2022. This restaurant is really worth coming to eat. Although it is a little far from Ikebukuro Station, it takes about ten minutes to walk , but I think it is worth it. Everyone must come and eat. It seems that there is another must-see pilgrimage to Ikebukuro. I believe that Ikebukuro West Exit Park Everyone who loves Japanese dramas must still be very impressed with the Japanese drama "Ikebukuro West Exit Park". That Japanese drama is based on this scenic spot as the theme. Next to Ikebukuro West Exit Park is the Tokyo Art Theater. Some music is often held here. For performances or art shows, there is also an open-air performance stage outside it. Sometimes you can see free street performances , and there is a super fashionable outdoor cafe next to Ikebukuro West Exit Park. I suggest you if you are free in the afternoon. Or if you are free at night, you can come here to have a cup of coffee and see if there are any free performances to enjoy here. There will be water dance shows in the middle of the square regularly . You can also sit here and drink coffee to watch today's show leisurely Everyone comes to Ikebukuro for a day trip. I don’t know what you think. My personal favorite is the Xiaoshu tea room. The whole atmosphere is really amazing. I will definitely recommend it again in the future. If you want to go , you can go there in the afternoon on weekdays. It will be a little less and because I only have the opportunity to go on weekends , I hope you don’t come to grab a seat with me.
