Tokyo Prices

« "Good Morning! I spent all day yesterday wandering around Tokyo, and of course, I couldn't miss the chance to see the city from a bird's eye view👀 If you want to catch a glimpse of the beauty of the Tokyo Tower🗼, I recommend heading over to Roppongi Hills. It's best to go on a clear day closer to sunset🌇. The ticket price is a bit steep at 23 dollars, but it's worth every penny as it includes a visit to the modern art museum, Mori Art, which I adored from the 52nd floor. If you wish to step out onto the open observation deck, also known as the helipad, you'll need to pay an extra 5 dollars. Do you enjoy getting to high places?" »

« To understand the price levels in Japan: petting a hedgehog costs around $180. To grasp the degree of this nation's restraint by common sense: petting a hedgehog costs about $180. Overall, prices are reasonable. If you don’t buy anything. »

« For those living in Tokyo and tired of Starbucks! I discovered the amazing French café "89" in Shinjuku. The prices are a bit higher, but the quality of the coffee is simply fabulous! ☕️✨ »

« In addition to the main exhibition, there were 5 more: an exhibition of Japanese painting, Western painting, Japanese sculpture, crafts, and calligraphy... The price for all other exhibitions is 1200¥ for adults and 700¥ for children (about $8 and $4.5), so I’m paying as an adult. However, since the museum closes at 6 PM, if you catch a ballet after 4 PM, it’s only 300¥ for adults and 200¥ for students, which is just $2.5 and $1.7! So for 300¥, you can see all the exhibitions with one ticket‼️ Just keep in mind that there’s no English information at these exhibitions👿 I’ll say right away that all exhibitions are interesting and definitely worth your attention! You could easily spend an entire day in this museum, no doubt! »

« It's that awkward moment when there's a crisis in the country, and you're drinking Swiss water with a view of the Japanese mountains... To be honest, it's only here that I realized how overpriced things are back home... For example, the same water costs $0.50 here, while at home it's over $4. And I could go on... Honesty is a rare thing... especially among our companies, unfortunately :( »

« Hello again! Work in Japan starts so early that after finishing my duties and before auditions, I managed to visit the Meiji Memorial Art Gallery, also known as Kaigakan Museum. You can easily get there by metro, using the Aoyama-itchome/Gaienmae/Shinanomachi stations. The museum building is located at the end of a beautiful ginkgo tree-lined avenue leading from Aoyama-itchome station. It’s open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and the entrance fee is around 500¥ (approximately $4). Unfortunately, photography is not allowed inside. 😒 »

« 760 yen and you're at the beach. »

« On August 26th, it rained all day, a constant annoying drizzle. The new shoes I'm wearing save the day, which I hadn't been able to wear at home yet, and a cup of coffee that costs $1.50. »

« One of the popular districts in Tokyo and its main shopping center is Ginza. The cost of land per square meter in this area is around $100,000. So, Ginza remains the most expensive district in the country. You can find stores from all the world’s major fashion and cosmetics brands here. For instance, to the right, you can spot one of the three official Apple stores in Tokyo. »

« Laundry. It reeks horribly of the cheapest cigarettes (around $1). Next to the sink on the washing machine is a big, tattered manga magazine. »
