There may be, for higher or worse, usually one thing of a discrepancy between locations which might be actually fashionable with vacationers however are just about unknown by the locals. The Robotic Restaurant in Shinjuku is one such instance and teamLab Planets in Toyosu is one other the place the overwhelming majority of tourists are from abroad.
For a few years now I’ve seen articles and posts on social media about this place however I had by no means taken an excessive amount of observe of them or actually had any curiosity in visiting it. Nevertheless, that modified when my eldest sister talked about going there while her household had been in Tokyo round Christmas time final 12 months. It’s all about creating reminiscences, and the considered going to a spot I’d by no means been was one which excited me extra than simply going spherical the same old sights I take guests to see.
 
Now I had no concept till we entered the place (completed by way of QR code tickets) that it included strolling in water at instances. Because of this our sneakers, socks and private gadgets had been stowed away within the lockers supplied and we made our approach around the course with our trouser legs rolled up. The primary a part of Asia’s main vacationer attraction 2023 was the infinite crystal universe; an accumulation of distinct colored dots extending indefinitely in all instructions.
 
There’s a number of pretentious sh*t written on the web about what it’s all imagined to imply however for us it was just a few cool and trippy trick artwork pictures.
  
This museum-of-sorts is sort of troublesome to explain as it’s absolutely immersive and a barely completely different expertise for every customer. The mirrored flooring and ceilings in addition to the lighting and other people round you retains you consistently invested within the spectactle of all of it.
 
We had been again within the swirling colored waters for one of many extra expansive rooms after that with swimming koi mirrored onto the floor however once you stepped on them they become flowers and dissipated.
The subsequent half was an area full of spheres of sunshine or some big balls in the event you choose.
 
If you transfer and push your approach via them the colors change which offsets the encompassing spheres one after one other thereby altering the lighting. Or one thing like that!
 
  
 
The following floating within the falling universe of flowers part was all somewhat psychedelic and the place we lay down on the ground to see a seasonal 12 months of flowers blooming and altering with time. For me, it simply jogged my memory of some music movies.
 
An out of doors moss backyard was subsequent which was laid out with vibrant ovoids that change look when touched by folks or blown by the wind.
  
  
 
The floating flower backyard was our ultimate port of name. The three dimensional art work area is one thing of a zen backyard the place you develop into one with the orchids.
 
 
 
Since visiting the teamLab Planets museum my eyes have been extra open to truly taking discover of different articles and movies concerning the place. Lots of them have requested whether it is well worth the journey and so I paradoxically copied that concept. Personally I used to be there to only get pleasure from time with my household however I do should say that it’s a very fulfilling and enjoyable expertise.
