Shinjuku (新宿区, Shinjuku-ku, "New Lodge") is a special ward located in Tokyo Metropolis, Japan. It is a major commercial and administrative centre, housing the busiest railway station in the world (Shinjuku Station) and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, the administration centre for the government of Tokyo. As of 2015, the ward has an estimated population of 337,556 and a population density of 18,517 people per km². The total area is 18.23 km².
Shinjuku is surrounded by Chiyoda to the east; Bunkyo and Toshima to the north; Nakano to the west, and Shibuya and Minato to the south.
The current city of Shinjuku grew out of several separate towns and villages, which have retained some distinctions despite growing together as part of the Tokyo metropolis.
Shinjuku Station (新宿駅, Shinjuku-eki) is a major railway station in Shinjuku and Shibuya wards in Tokyo, Japan.
Serving as the main connecting hub for rail traffic between Tokyo's special wards and Western Tokyo on inter-city rail, commuter rail, and metro lines, the station was used by an average of 3.64 million people per day in 2007, making it, by far, the world's busiest transport hub (and registered as such with Guinness World Records). The station itself has 36 platforms, including an underground arcade, above ground arcade and numerous hallways. There are well over 200 exits. Another 17 platforms (51 total) can be accessed through hallways to 5 directly connected stations without surfacing outside.
Shinjuku is served by the following railway systems:
Tokyo (東京, Tōkyō, "Eastern Capital") (Japanese: [toːkjoː], English /ˈtoʊki.oʊ/), officially Tokyo Metropolis (東京都, Tōkyō-to), is one of the 47 prefectures of Japan, and is both the capital and largest city of Japan. The Greater Tokyo Area is the most populous metropolitan area in the world. It is the seat of the Emperor of Japan and the Japanese government. Tokyo is in the Kantō region on the southeastern side of the main island Honshu and includes the Izu Islands and Ogasawara Islands. Formerly known as Edo, it has been the de facto seat of government since 1603 when Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu made the city his headquarters. It officially became the capital after Emperor Meiji moved his seat to the city from the old capital of Kyoto in 1868; at that time Edo was renamed Tokyo. Tokyo Metropolis was formed in 1943 from the merger of the former Tokyo Prefecture (東京府, Tōkyō-fu) and the city of Tokyo (東京市, Tōkyō-shi).

Crazy, sexy, busy, fun, insane, mad, expensive, sinful... I'm not sure how'd you'd describe Kabukichō(歌舞伎町), but all of these words accurately describe the area. Known as a red-light district, this area is much more than that. It's popular with tourists and locals alike. It's a must-see if you travel to Tokyo! Also, be sure and check out 'Golden Gai', or Golden Street (ゴールデン街)to catch a glimpse of what Tokyo used to look like!
My Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/com/drift0r I got lost in Shinjuku Station which is not only the busiest station in Tokyo Japan, but is also the busiest subway station in the world! Jessica wanted to find a Daiso (Japanese dollar store) and we went down to the second or third subbasement of one of several malls attached to Shinjuku station. The internet and GPS mostly stopped working. The signs were mostly in Japanese. The crazy thing is that everything connected. It was like being in an ant hill! 4 million people in one tiny area.

Tokyo Shinjuku by Night Part I - 新宿区 - 4K Ultra HD : One of Tokyo’s most popular areas, Shinjuku only truly reveals itself at night. Dirty, noisy and somehow vulgar, Shinjuku at night is nonetheless one of the most interesting places to visit in Tokyo. Shinjuku is divided into different smaller areas that are not always welcoming to cameras at night, and for good reason. Among these areas we have the famous “Golden Gai”, a set of small streets crowded with bars that can often fit only a few people at a time and where Japanese salarymen and other partygoers drink until they can no longer walk straight. You will also find “Kabuki-cho”, the “adult” district of Shinjuku with many hostess bars and sometimes more... Limited in our actions and often asked, not always politely, to “%#$% off”, w...
