JAPAN - Tokyo - Shinjuku
Kabukicho area
A short walk from the East Exit of Shinjuku Station, Kabukicho - the town that never sleeps - is your gateway to the weird and wonderful side of Japan’s nightlife. Though Japanese locals often think of it as dodgy and dangerous, as far as entertainment and red light districts go, Kabukicho is much tamer than its counterparts in other cities worldwide. Kakukicho is also home to Godzilla statue and many people, including kids, are strolling the area to see it.
