This is one of my favourite places in Harajuku and it's the perfect place to escape to when you get tired of the crowds. 

There is more to Tōgō shrine than meets the eye - head down the stairs on the other side of the shrine and you will find yourself in this tranquil garden. Take a stroll and watch the colourful koi carp swimming in the pond before heading back to the hustle and bustle of Harajuku.  

To get to Tōgō shrine, turn left at Marion Crepes on Takeshita-dōri.

I think if I was a 12 year old kid or a huge fan of Godzilla I would have been over the moon. However, I was on a business trip and while it was adequate for sleeping I lost a lot of time trying to work as there was no desk. The internet was slow, and there were no upgrade options. Overall if you ...
