The celebrity couple drew attention as they shopped and strolled around the streets of Tokyo this weekend.
Back when they first met, Kanye West told Kim Kardashian that he would take her to Japan, and it seems the American rapper has followed through on his promise, with the celebrity couple spotted on the streets of Tokyo this weekend.

The pair were first seen in Japan on Saturday, just days after Kanye celebrated his 40th birthday on 8 June. They kicked off their visit in the swanky Omotesando neighborhood of Tokyo, where Kim came across the infamous Cat Man from Kyushu, photographing his kitties bundled up in a pram.
Kim later posted a video to Snapchat, showing her crossing the intersection at Omotesando and meeting the furry cats.
The couple, who have been married since 2014, were then spotted walking down the main street of Omotesando towards Harajuku.
While she was in Omotesando, Kim met up for a quick chat with Indonesian TV personality and socialite Syahrini.
Kim and her husband then made a quick stop at popular children’s toy store Kiddy Land, where they browsed through some cute Sanrio character socks.
Keen to try McDonald’s in Japan, Kim picked up an apple pie while they shopped up a storm around Tokyo.
Then it was time for more sightseeing, with Kanye snapping photos of Kim as they walked around the city. Following his wife’s frightening robbery at gunpoint in her Paris apartment last October, Kanye appeared to be keeping an extra vigilant eye on people around them during their visit.
The duo managed to squeeze some traditional Japanese culture into their day as well, with this video showing them in a room with tatami straw mat floors, overlooking a beautifully manicured garden.
The couple also opted to try some traditional Japanese-style food at dinnertime.
Kim and Kanye attracted attention during their night out in Shinjuku’s Kabukicho district.
The next day, they were spotted strolling the streets of Harajuku, once again attracting attention as they casually walked through the backstreets.
This Japanese passer-by couldn’t quite believe he was seeing Kanye West and his wife in person, wondering if perhaps this was some weird type of cosplay instead.
Kimye then stopped in at the Brand Collect clothing store, where crowds of onlookers gathered to catch a glimpse of the celebrity couple.
Kim filmed the waiting crowd as they left the store.

They left the fashionable area by car, with their security team in tow.
The couple then went on to Shinjuku, where they were seen shopping at Isetan department store.
Following their busy day, Kim shared this selfie with her fans, showing her and Kanye in what appears to be some luxurious accommodation.
While there’s no word yet on how long Kimye will be gracing Japanese shores for, with Kim’s love of social media, we’re sure she’ll be keeping everyone updated with their travels on Snapchat.
Personally, we’d like to see them visiting some of the traditional shrines and temples in Kyoto, and shacking up for the night in a bookshelf at the unusual bookstore hotel. That would definitely make for a memorable video!
