Tokyo 東京

City

Japan's vast capital — a city of distinct neighbourhoods rather than one centre: old-temple Asakusa, neon Shibuya, mega-hub Shinjuku, museum-and-park Ueno, and the shrine-and-fashion belt of Harajuku. Superb trains tie it all together.

Asakusa & nearby — a sights day

Old downtown Tokyo: the Senso-ji temple and its Nakamise souvenir street, rickshaws, traditional sweets, and Tokyo Skytree rising across the river. The city's most atmospheric, lower-cost quarter — best early before the crowds.
