Question:
Hi,
My friend and I will be spending a couple of days in Tokyo over Christmas. Since I've heard this is a big time for young couples in Japan, we thought we'd spend the day doing a kind of fake date thing just for a bit of fun. So we're curious to know what would be the usual Christmas date in Tokyo. What would couples do (apart from the obvious bedroom gymnastics) and where would they go?
Is there anything particularly special we should check out that happens in Tokyo at Christmas (ie: famous light displays or anything we might not know about)?
Answer:
Christmas is nearly on par with Valentine's Day for couples:
- Go to your local bakery and buy a Christmas Cake (they're small)
- Go to KFC and pick up a bucket/box o chicken (you may have to make a reservation!)
- Pick up a bottle of your favorite champagne.
- Go to a local concert hall to hear Beethovan's Ninth being played (or carols)
This has all come into being after I moved back to the US so I've not experienced this first hand, but apparently by all accounts it's true.
