Big Echo Hamamatsu-Cho Station Store

Closely can see the “Shinkansen” are running on track

What a fantastic place if you want to experience how it feels beeing an ant in the center of an anthill. The best time to get this feeling is in morning at around 9 o'clock... arriving with the monorail from Haneda Airport after a 12-hour long-haul flight from Europe or the U.S. - of course in time pressure... try to get the next regional train to Shinagawa... in time... so that you don't miss the Shinkansen. Don't panic ... You are not the only one... lot of other "ants" may hear you scream... Please interpret this rateing slightly sarcastically. Keep in mind, you are in Japan and Hamamatsucho Station is not a girls boarding school. It`s in my opinion the most overcrowded Trainstation of whole Tokyo. O.K. I may be wrong. However, it`s clean and if you love people, other cultures like the Japanese, this place is an attraction. Just be prepared... And NO. You are not on drugs if you see and feel whats going on. It`s reality.

Beautiful station near Tokyo Tower! 🇯🇵👍
