Tokyo

Konnichiwa!

The genre that comes to mind when considering Tokyo is that of science fiction. Tokyo city is usually referenced in pop culture for its futuristic skyscrapers (that get destroyed by a giant dinosaur-like monster?) and city dwellers donned in futuristic attire. But Tokyo tourism is full of paradoxes. In between the modern buildings and busy streets are pockets of old-world architecture and silent cobblestone streets waiting to be discovered by travelers excited to see more than the setting of Godzilla as Tokyo tourist attractions.

Tokyo is daunting at first, and you’ll probably be buried in information of what to see for your Japan holidays. However, you’ll soon find that it’s only a matter of getting your bearings to find out what suits your travel personality.
