It’s rare when visiting or living in Tokyo to find a genuine peaceful oasis. For all that Tokyo is a majestic city, and it very much is, there are very few benches, parks or areas that give people a touch of respite compared, perhaps, with other capitals in the world. 

The Shinjuku district of Tokyo is well known as one of the world’s most boisterous districts, however, it does, conversely, have a few ideal and tranquil locations to relax and take stock.
