Omoide Yokocho
When we are gathered, let's get to know each other. Then, prepare to immerse yourself in Shinjuku's drinking street, known as Memory Lane.
We'll start at Memory Lane and explore the nostalgic Showa-era taverns. You'll enjoy the atmospheric contrast compared to the bustling business district of Kabukicho in Shinjuku.
In Memory Lane, you'll also get a glimpse of Shinjuku's history. Let's walk down this street, allowing your imagination to wander towards the background of how this lane came into existence and the daily lives of the people back then!
Since it's not always easy to come across retro scenes, We recommend capturing them in photographs!
We will stop by one of the pubs and enjoy some Japanese street food, such as skewered meat (Yakitori), beer stew, or seafood. Also, you will find the iconic Highball, an alcoholic beverage originating from this very place.
Let's enjoy local foods and drinks here.

We may visit the Pachinko Center to see what it's like and how people enjoy it. Additionally, there are many game centers here, and we can stop by one to play some games for fun.
After enjoying Pachinko and the game center, we will take a photo with the Godzilla statue. Then, we will have another dinner, which includes "All-You-Can-Drink

Shinjuku Golden Gai
After enjoying an all-you-can-drink experience, it's time to head to the long-awaited Golden Gai. On your way there, you'll make a stop at the largest shrine in Shinjuku, Hanazono Shrine. Hanazono Shrine is believed to bring blessings, especially in the realm of business, so let's visit together.
After paying your respects, you'll enter the heart of Golden Gai. This area is characterized by narrow alleyways lined with small bars and izakayas, exuding a retro ambiance. Navigate through the labyrinthine network of these narrow side streets, and make your way to the final establishment.
Here, savor your last drink and immerse yourself in the lingering memories of your journey.
