2. Grab lunch or a coffee and relax in Minami Ikebukuro Koen
One of the newest parks in Ikebukuro and also one of the most pleasant places to relax on sunny days. There’s a nice bistro and café in the park, but also an abundance of restaurants and coffee shops on the nearby streets, so no matter what you’re in the mood for you will most likely find it somewhere around here.
3. Shop and have fun at Sunshine Dori
Head down Sunshine Dori and check out some of the many shops and entertainment facilities in the area. No matter if you are in the mood to visit a game center or animal cafés, This part of Ikebukuro will most certainly not disappoint.
4. Visit the massive entertainment complex of Sunshine City
The most iconic shopping and entertainment complex in Ikebukuro is well worth a visit. Under one roof, you’ll find everything from all your shopping needs as well as one of Tokyo’s best aquariums, a planetarium, a food themed amusement park, as well as an observation deck offering breathtaking views of Tokyo.
5. Explore Otome Road -- Akihabara for females
This street next to Sunshine City is sometimes referred to as the Akihabara for females, due to the high concentration of shops specializing in manga for women, a large portion of this made up out of the “Boys Love” sub genre, erotica with boys as the main characters. If this kind of comics doesn’t appeal to you, perhaps a visit to a “Butlers Cafe” might? Here, handsome boys will treat you like a princess while serving you coffee and cake.Hotel Suncity Ikebukuro
