皆さんご存じの東京駅丸の内駅舎です。日本の鉄道の歴史の象徴そのものです。
1914完成後、太平洋戦争時に一部破壊され、2012に復元工事が完了しました。
歴史的建造物を元通りに復元しようとする精神はクールジャパンだと思います。

Have you ever seen Tokyo station covered in a soft blanket of snow? It's truly a breathtaking sight to behold! The contrast of the white snow against the city's bustling energy creates a magical atmosphere that is simply unforgettable. If you ever get the chance to experience it for yourself, I highly recommend it!

This place is often compared to the renowned Tokyo station by many tourists. It used to be the headquarters of the Ministry of Justice but now serves as the Institute of Legal Affairs and the Legal Library. The Meiji period construction was designed by two competent German architects. Despite being damaged in World War II, it was successfully restored. The symmetrical and majestic architecture of the building is simply breathtaking. The European style of the Meiji period is beautifully represented in this structure and looks even more stunning during the rare snowfall in Tokyo. Exploring new places in this bustling city during the snow season is an experience worth having.

雪舞うTokyo station🚉

昨晩は、数年に一度の大雪でした☃
今回は定番の東京駅と雪を撮ってみました。有名な場所なだけあって多くのカメラマンで溢れかえってました🤣

東京の丸の内KITTEから東京駅を写しました。
東京駅は1914年12月20日に開業しました。
1923年の関東大震災でもほとんど被害は無かったのですが、1945年の東京大空襲により被災しました。戦後は丸の内駅舎が階数を減らして復興され、2012年（平成24年）に開業当時の姿に復原されました。

2022年12月24日土に家族で外食しに行く前に寄った、KITTE丸の内１階にあるクリスマスツリーです。

偶然私が日本テレビ「ぶらり途中下車の旅」で存在を知りました。

毎年12月になると巨大なクリスマスツリーが設置され、イルミネーションと音楽の競演が定期的に行われるそうです。

東京駅でわりと行ってない人が多いのが国際フォーラムやKITTEこれわりと知らない人が多いです。都内に在住の方は是非行ってみてください。綺麗ですよ！

A nice Christmas tree I found near Akabane Station. I'm pretty excited for the holidays. I like the romantic format of Christmas in Japan much more than I do the spending time with family version in America. There's something about the cold weather that makes it feel romantic spending time together with the person special to you.

Another great thing about this time of year is all of the buffets!
I love going to the buffets and trying all the different food. It's a much different style than the U.S. too which is fun.

I can't say I don't miss eating a nice Christmas ham or turkey with some stuffing basically the same as thanksgiving lol, but what's awesome about the buffets is they always have some sort of prime rib or king crab, one really special item that everyone lines up for lol.

One thing I miss is the holiday portion of Christmas back in America, but the New Years holiday in Japan more than makes up for it.
Also the illuminations in Japan are always awesome.
Places like Ginza, Tokyo Station, etc. always have incredibly beautiful showings.
Didn't get to go to any last year, but this year I'm hoping to be able to visit at least one!

I stopped by Tokyo Station over the weekend to take care of an errand and decided to have lunch at the gyutan restaurant "Rikyu" 利久. Everything tasted amazing and the stew was especially good. I always enjoy the soup served with gyutan, it's sort of like a refreshing break in between the savory bites of beef. Plus the beef inside of the soup is soft from being boiled and has a really nice texture to it. I was pretty surprised at the salad actually, as well. I usually am not a fan of the salads served with gyutan but this one had the perfect amount of beef on it and the dressing tasted quite nice, so that was a welcome surprise. The wagashi served with it tasted really good. I'm not sure about what it was exactly, but it was red bean paste with some sort of white filling, maybe even white bean paste, but it was a good way to finish the meal.
