After waking up at the Mercure, we visited Haneda-jinja (aviation safety) and Gotokuji (Maneki-neko). We saw a fantastic Mount Fuji view and visited Azabudai Hills before ending the day with winter illuminations at Roppongi and the Meguro River.

Cats, Planes, and More in Tokyo

After waking up at the Mercure, we visited the nearby Haneda-jiinja, popular for aviation safety, before going further away to Gotokuji, a temple with thousands of Maneki-neko. We then came across a fantastic Mount Fuji view, had lunch, and checked out the new Azabudai Hills before dinner nearby. We ended the day by viewing winter illuminations at Roppongi and the Meguro River.
