A day we like
Neon & Noodles: Roppongi / Azabudai Balanced Day
Start here, then adjust the walking, weather, family needs, or pace.
Big energy, skyline moments, and a lively finish. Starting around teamLab Borderless and ending near Suntory Hall, this route stays mostly in Roppongi / Azabudai so more of the day goes to exploring, not crossing town.
