Odaiba is a waterfront area of shopping malls, game centers, and museums. It's a neat place to get a different view point of Tokyo from across the Bay. Top draws include the Odaiba Ferris Wheel and Miraikan museum. Busy on weekends, it is much quieter weekdays. Get there either by the Yurikome monorail from Shimbashi station, or by ferry from Hinode pier.
