]]>Arguably the most recognizable shot in the movie was filmed at the New York Bar in the Park Hyatt Hotel. This bar not only serves up good food and tasty drinks, but was selected as a shooting site due to its eye-catching bar with panoramic views of the entire city.
Easy to miss if you aren’t looking for it, Joganji Temple is an authentic little piece of Buddhist tradition located on a hill in the western suburbs of the city. When you see it, you’ll recognize it as a place where Johansson’s lost character stumbles around while contemplating her existence.
Some of the most eye-catching scenes in the film were filmed in Kabukicho, often described as the Times Square of Tokyo. Massive, neon advertisements, bright lights, and signs dominate this district where Murray and Johansson can be seen stumbling around late at night in the film.

]]>Perhaps the most famous feature of this beautiful part of the world is Shinkyo Bridge. Built in the 1600s, the wonderfully intricate red bridge is a relatively new addition to the area. It said to be the gateway to Nikko.

A gushing river runs through the mountains, past the city, and under our Shinkyo bridge. It is worshiped in traditional Japanese religion. If you spend enough time with it, you can feel its soul and personality for yourself.

Near the river and the bridge is an ancient Shinto shrine, built in 767. This is a beautiful traditional Japanese sacred structure used to house sacred objects.
In addition to the Shinto shrine, the city also has the Tosho-gu shrine. The shrine is home to a 17th-century carving which is said to be the origin of the proverb or The Wise Monkeys.

The Hanshin Tigers’ loyal fans provide an intense supporting atmosphere for their team at Koshien Stadium, located near the city of Kobe. Holding nearly 50,000 fans, your ears will be ringing after a night at this baseball palace.
While it might not be the most modern or the fanciest stadium, the Yomiuri Giants’ home of the Tokyo Dome is a stadium that cannot be missed on a trip to Japan’s largest city. What’s best is that, even if the weather is bad, the dome will mean a comfortable environment to watch the game.
Yokohama Stadium is a small stadium with charm, which holds up to 30,000 fans in the country’s second-largest city. The environment at this stadium is like the baseball of old, with fans that hang on to every moment and love supporting their BayStars.

The second-largest aquarium on Earth is the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, which is the crown jewel of Japan’s aquarium scene. Focusing on the blend of tropical and subtropical influences on Okinawa’s seas, this breathtaking showcase of marine life is an experience you won’t soon forget.
Osaka’s Kaiyukan Aquarium has a stunning format that features a selection of plant and animal life from sixteen ocean ecosystems all over the planet. Highlights include the Great Barrier Reef, Japanese Forests, and Chilean Rocks tanks.
Damaged by the famous 2011 earthquake and tsunami which affected Fukushima, but reopened shortly thereafter, the Aquamarine Aquarium focuses on the cold water and hot water current interplay which happens in the Shiome Sea just off of the coast of the city.
