If you’re looking for romantic spots in the capital, Tokyo Tower is perfect! It has become a city symbol and carries an air of romance like the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Standing at 333 meters, it offers stunning views of the dazzling city lights and the night sky.

It also tends to be less crowded than another of Tokyo’s favorites, Sky Tree, which creates a more intimate mood. Enjoy the spectacular cityscape with your better half, and the observation decks are perfect for a memorable photo opportunity. At the bottom of the tower are shops and restaurants for you to dine in. There’s even a fine jazz lounge at the top; could you think of anything more romantic?

Jiyugaoka

In Tokyo’s southwest, just 10 minutes from Shibuya Station, you’ll find the sophisticated area of Jiyugaoka. But despite its upmarket reputation, the atmosphere is quite laid-back, with none of the overwhelming glitz of central Tokyo. Jiyugaoka is known for its European vibe and picturesque streets, and it’s perfect for a lovely and romantic afternoon stroll. 

One of the main points travelers flock to is La Vita, a perfect spot to bring your loved one. It’s a cute little square with Italian-inspired buildings and a manmade miniature river.

Visiting the Jiyugaoka neighborhood is a must-do in Tokyo for those who want to relax in style. This area has everything from knick-knacks and camera goods to vegan takes on traditional Japanese cuisine.

You can enjoy its long-treasured abundant nature or visit the various sweets stores. Visiting the Jiyugaoka neighborhood is a must-do in Tokyo for those who want to relax in style.
