So since we're landing in Tokyo for four hours. You guys know of anything to do? I've never been before but if there is a place inside or directly outside to see or eat that would be cool.

Just figured I could allocate 2 of the four hours to see something. Get lost... and miss my flight to Seoul.

You won't barely get out of the airport with only 4 hours.

A train ride into shinjuku takes an hour or more.

So that' leaves you with 2 hours in Shinjuku and an hour train ride back.

Not going to work.

You need to check in about 2 hours ahead of time.

You're f*cked. No exploring in Tokyo for you, unless you really want to risk missing your flight.

Ah, what the hell, take a chance!

Usually I just go to Nartia - two subway stops from the airport.

Its a small town with a nice temple, a few decent eateries - Indian food, middle eastern, mostly Japanese though.

It gets you out of the airport anyways. Seems like its always raining there - I've wandered around Narita on at least 4 different occassions now on layovers.
