Located in Asakusa district, Tokyo, Sensoji Temple, also known as Asakusa Kannon Temple, is Tokyo's oldest temple and a sacred spot across Japan, drawing more than 30 million visitors each year.

No matter how many times they returned the statue to the water, it kept coming back to them. That's why Sensoji Temple was built nearby in 645, making it the oldest temple in Tokyo and a Shinto shrine dedicated to Kannon. Throughout the year, the temple grounds host exciting events like the Sanja Matsuri festival in May, the Asakusa Samba Carnival in August, and the traditional Hagoita Market, where decorative paddles are sold for a fun game called hanetsuki.

You need to buy tickets about 14-15 days in advance to get a good time. I booked two separate days and times because I was hoping to do one at sunset and another at night. even though I went on the site immediately when tickets were available, all the sunset optiobs were sold out. I thought going 1.5 hours early would be okay since there was a bar upstairs. but the it was so crowded that we couldn’t find space to sit & it was far to hot (late August) to stay in tge roof until sunset. so we took our pics and left. the following night was much better. I booked a 1940 time slot was much better. It was cooler, they had a light show and the skyline was incredible!!!

Tickets are very easy to redeem. Tokyo DisneySea was such an amazing experience! From the beautiful scenery and attention to detail to the incredible rides and shows, everything felt truly magical. The park is so unique compared to other Disney parks, and every area has its own atmosphere that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a different world.
The views were beautiful, the food was delicious, and there were so many fun attractions to enjoy. Even just walking around and taking photos was an experience on its own! 📸✨
It can get quite crowded, so planning your day ahead is definitely worth it. But despite the crowds and long queues, the overall experience was absolutely worth it.
One of the highlights of my trip to Japan and definitely a place I would love to visit again! ❤️🇯🇵

Stepping into teamLab Borderless at Azabudai Hills feels like crossing the boundary between reality and dreams. There's no fixed path here, only endless fantastical exploration.
As light flows like ripples beneath your feet, you wander among shimmering light and shadow discs that sway like aquatic plants, making you feel as if you're in a dazzling, uncharted underwater world. Looking up, brilliant beams of light intertwine into deep geometric vortices; turning into another exhibition area, thousands of cascading fiber optic lights pour down like a rain of stars, enveloping you in a three-dimensional galaxy of flowing colors.
The most captivating experience is undoubtedly the EN TEA HOUSE. As you pick up your matcha and ice cream, the previously still tabletop immediately blossoms with vibrant flowers and foliage, with blooms and wilting all happening within your cup. In this boundless labyrinth constructed from light, shadow, sound, and technology, every turn is a captivating feast of digital art.

This place is absolutely amazing. the pictures are great, but don't do it justice for everything you experience inside. It really is breathtakingly spectacular. Well worth the money, well organised and a really unique experience.

Booking through Klook is incredibly convenient! You don't have to waste time waiting in line to buy tickets at the venue. Just present the QR code you received to the staff at the entrance for scanning, and you can exchange it for a ticket and go up to enjoy the view immediately. It's hassle-free, and you even get a better price than buying on-site. The views of Tokyo are beautiful and very impressive. If you're planning to visit Tokyo Skytree, I highly recommend booking in advance through Klook. It's definitely worth it and meets all expectations! The convenience of booking through Klook:

It took us about 5-6 hours to eat and have butterbeer inside the Harry Potter Studio, haha! I saw reviews saying it takes at least 4 hours, and they were right! It was an exhibition worth the price, and my mother, who is in her 60s, also enjoyed it, finding it fascinating and fun to explore~! ☺️ I'm not a huge fan, but I grew up with Harry Potter, so I intentionally added it to my Tokyo itinerary, and I'm so, so glad I did ㅠㅠ💜 It was the Tokyo Harry Potter Studio with incredible historical accuracy and insane detail quality, so much so that it took half a day to see it all..👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Super satisfied! Getting the movie collaboration '討伐棒' (subjugation stick), playing mini-games, and buying new merchandise was fantastic! 👍 Booking the Chiikawa Land experience through Klook this time was incredibly worthwhile! As soon as I entered, I received the highly anticipated movie collaboration limited edition '討伐棒,' which felt very high-quality in my hands. As a fan, I was truly touched! The photo zones on-site were also very well-designed. I finally got to take a picture with the movie characters Siren and Hachiware, and the scene was super cute, making for millions of points in photo quality! Besides taking photos, the experience of playing mini-games on-site was also great 👍, with plenty of interaction. The store also had a wide variety of new merchandise, making it easy to buy a lot 👍. Before I knew it, my shopping basket was full. The overall flow of the park was very smooth, and checking e-tickets was quick. I highly recommend it to all Chiikawa fans who want to collect the latest limited edition merchandise!

Great experience with klook as you fo not need to register on the puroland website beforehand. Simply show your klook voucher and you are good to go. We arrived 15min prior to opening as long queues even on a Friday can start well before opening time. The queue is daunting but we managed to enter smoothly, scanned the QR code for wifi from one of the ushers inside the complex and then booked the Meet and Greet character sessions without issue. Tip, take a screencap of your character session qrcode in case your connection died like mine did! Also the toilets by Fairytaleland are quite cool!

1. If you go at night, the background (the observatory wall behind the person taking the photo) will reflect a lot in the glass. It's best to find a position and angle where there's minimal reflection. 2. It's definitely prettier at night. Because of this, you might even have to wait in line at spots with the Tokyo Tower in the background. Be aware that some people might inconsiderately take photos for a long time in the same spot. 3. The entrance and exit are different, and you have to walk all the way around. The closer you get to the exit, the less you can see Tokyo Tower, but it's quieter and there are places to lean and take photos, so the atmosphere is better. (However, if you like night views, the scenery around Tokyo Tower is still better.) 4. How to enter: Find the Mori Tower Gallery and take the elevator to the 3rd floor -> Buy tickets at the 3rd-floor ticket office or present your pre-purchased ticket QR code -> Follow the instructions and take the elevator to the 52nd floor in order (scan your QR code to enter).
Tokyo at a glance
Quick facts about Tokyo
General info
What to know before visiting Tokyo
Quick snapshot of Tokyo’s experiences and timing
Tokyo’s busiest Klook categories are observation decks, museums and theme parks, giving the city a mix of skyline views, cultural visits and big-day attractions. Demand on Klook rises and falls through the year, with clear high and low periods that shape how crowded those experiences feel.
Best months to visit for price and crowds
Klook booking data shows demand peaks in February and falls to a trough in August. Prices, however, move differently: Klook’s data indicates the priciest month tends to be August while the cheapest month typically falls in June. That means crowds are lowest in August but prices are at their highest, whereas June often offers lower prices with more moderate demand. If you prefer smaller crowds and peak-season atmosphere, aim for February; if lower prices and quieter booking windows matter more, consider travelling in June.
Tips for travellers from Australia
Australian travellers typically book about two weeks ahead, so plan arrivals and big activities with that lead time in mind—especially during February when demand peaks. Many experiences in Tokyo can still be arranged a few days out, but locking in key observation deck tickets, museum entries or theme-park options around 15 days ahead gives you more certainty. Use Klook to secure those bookings in advance while keeping some flexibility for last-minute additions.
