Since I'm in my late twenties, if I were taking a female friend around the same age, I'd start with Tokyo Tower 🗼. Personally, I think it's cooler and more striking than the Skytree, so I'd want her to see it first.
If the weather is nice, we could relax at Shiba Park nearby—it's also a great photo spot. For lunch, I'd take her to Napolistaca, a restaurant close by that serves amazing pizza 🍕.
And if we head over to the recently opened Azabudai Hills, we can enjoy shopping too. It's full of stylish stores, perfect for friends who love keeping up with the latest trends!
