The Backstreets of Shinjuku Show a Completely Different Tokyo
Everyone knows Shinjuku. The neon, the crowds, Godzilla looking down over Kabukicho. It is the busiest station in the world. But that is the Shinjuku tourists see. I wanted to find the other one. The quiet streets a few minutes away. The super markets where locals actually buy their dinner. The garden that are not Shinjuku Gyoen. So I spent a day walking, away from the crowds, looking for the real Shinjuku. My Kamakura travel guide: https://tokyoken.gumroad.com/l/kamaku...
