|  Day and night, weekday and weekend, a seemingly endless queue can be seen winding through the Shinjuku District of Tokyo. Who would spend so much time standing around when there are so many exciting things to do in this part of Tokyo?
People who passionately long for American doughnuts at hKrispy Kremeh.
The store has seen no rest since opening on December 15 last year, and 10,000 people visited in the just the first three days.
 This isn't the first Japanese doughnut craze.
The Japanese are very fond of doughnuts and they were also all the rage a decade ago.
There always seems to be a new shop or new style of doughnut drawing large crowds somewhere.
Perhaps it's the simple nature of doughnuts that gives them such a strong appeal among the Japanese. Krispy Kreme has a traditional recipe that gives them a unique texture.
 The store also features a "Doughnut Theater" where visitors can watch the doughnuts being made, making them desire the treat even more as they wait.
What kind of doughnuts do they have in your country? Krispy Kreme has shops in 12 countries throughout the world!!

Japanese people love soaking in a hot spring.
But what some people may not know is that we Japanese also like relaxing in spas and esthetic clinics.
There is a large variety of spas in the middle of the city; conveniently located so people can easily pop by after dinner or shopping. If you are looking for something that is both relaxing and special, a spa inside a luxurious hotel might be just the thing!
The Royal Park Shiodome Tower, in Tokyo's Shimbashi area, is home to the Mandara Spa. Originating in Bali, the Mandara Spa is an authentic spa that exudes an Asian resort charm. There is also a room for both ladies and men to enjoy their treatment in the same room; a good chance for those men who have been hesitating to try out a spa to come with their partner.
Conrad Tokyo's spa, also in Shimbashi, offers a SPA + CUISINE Macrobiotic course.
This course offers a healthy Japanese kaiseki cuisine course, and as the name suggests, is made with macrobiotic ingredients including brown rice.
A healthy meal and a nice massage will no doubt get that metabolism running and leave you refreshed and relaxed!
The best thing is that you don't even have to stay at the hotel to try out these spas.
So why not pamper yourself, take a break from your busy trip, and relax at a spa! |
