I’m going with my wife to Japan for the first time and we have this day to do some exploring and want to try and his these three places. It seems doable, Meiji Shrine is next to Harajuku and if we like Harajuku enough, we could just stay there and skip Gyoen Garden (Especially since we’re going to Kyoto later on). Shibuya I’d like to hit once the sun starts to set for some photography and exploring. Golden Gai… lots of mixed reviews on this, so if we don’t do it, it’d just be dinner plans.
Thoughts? Thanks !
