In recent years, the Japanese capital has undergone numerous transformations. This article focuses on Japan's tallest hotel and entertainment tower: the Tokyu Kabukicho Tower, the new jewel of the Shinjuku district.
It's official! The Tokyu Kabukicho Tower (東急歌舞伎町タワー) will open its doors in April 2023. And it's safe to say the project looks incredibly appealing. Indeed, the 48 floors (plus 4 basement levels) of this 225-meter tower promise a wide variety of services. The project aims to become a must-see on the list of attractions in the Japanese capital, for both Japanese and foreign visitors.
