1. A Classic and Popular Places

A Memorable Place

If you have visited Japan with your partner in the past, you probably have some memorable places. If you propose at such a place, it will be an unforgettable proposal, including the location.

Another good choice would be a place that is associated with shared memories, such as a location that was the setting for an anime or Japanese movie that you watched together, or a place related to a common hobby.

Either One's House

If you want to propose in an everyday setting, it's most relaxing to do it at one of your homes.

If you are at home, you don't have to worry about other people around. Also, because it's just you and your partner, you have more freedom to plan a surprise proposal.

The person receiving the proposal will also be able to prepare mentally more easily in the relaxing environment of home, which will increase the chances of them accepting the proposal.

Restaurants

Tokyo has many restaurants with great views, such as those on high floors and those overlooking the sea, so one of the great things about proposing at a restaurant is that you can propose in a romantic setting.

Many restaurants offer plans to support proposals, such as preparing bouquets of flowers and surprise cakes, so you can propose with peace of mind even if you're visiting as a tourist and can't make as many advance preparations as you'd like.

If you are planning to propose at a restaurant, it is a good idea to let the restaurant know that you would like to propose when making your reservation in advance and ask them to prepare a seat with a good view by the window or a quiet seat away from the other customers.

Night View and Illuminations

If you want to propose in a romantic atmosphere, a place with a night view or illuminations is the best!!

Tokyo is a global metropolis, and its night views and dazzling illuminations are among the best in the world. If you're planning on proposing in Tokyo, this is a situation you can't miss.

Hotels

If you're planning a surprise proposal, wouldn't you like to create an extraordinary feeling? For those people, we recommend proposing at a hotel. If it's a high-class hotel, it's sure to make the proposal even more special and memorable.

You can also ask the hotel to prepare your room in advance. Many hotels also offer proposal plans, so we recommend using one of those.

One of the great things about proposing in a hotel is that you can propose in a space just for the two of you, without worrying about the eyes of others, and you can bask in the afterglow just the two of you after the proposal.

A Place with an Ocean View

Places with ocean views naturally create a romantic atmosphere, making them ideal locations for proposals.

Tokyo's seaside in particular has many spots where you can see the skyscrapers beyond the water, and at night you can enjoy the glittering cityscape in a quiet setting, making it the perfect place for a romantic proposal.

However, it can be difficult to propose in bad weather, so be sure to check the weather forecast beforehand. If you choose a restaurant or hotel on the seaside, you won't have to worry about the weather, so we recommend it.

2. Night View Spots and Illuminations

Skytree

Completed in 2012, the Skytree is the tallest tower in the world, standing at 634m. Proposing while looking down on the glittering night view of Tokyo from the observation deck, which is one of the highest in the world, or proposing at a French restaurant inside the Skytree, or even underneath the illuminated Skytree, is a wonderful idea.

As the catchphrase goes, "Climb up with friends, come down with your lover," it's also a popular romantic proposal spot, and is sure to make for a proposal that will be remembered for a lifetime.
