The neon lights of Shinjuku

Takashimaya Times Square shopping mall

Shinjuku Station is one of the busiest stations in the world with nearly a million people going through each day. It is at the center of a concentration of train and subway lines. The station is immense, complicated, and confusing to navigate through, so have fun exploring the area.

Shinjuku is filled with neon lights and complex establishments for shopping and amusement. The "Red light" district known as Kabukicho is on the Northeast end, filled with hosts and hostesses wandering the streets at night looking for customers.

At the South exit is the large Takashimaya Times Square building, a 12-story tall shopping mall filled with brand name goods. There is also a fun Tokyu hands store, along with a HMV CD shop at the top.


Take the JR line to Shinjuku.
Almost all subway lines in the Tokyo region will intersect Shinjuku station.
