Things to do

Tokyo blends traditional and modern attractions, from the informative Edo-Tokyo Museum to the 332-metre-tall Tokyo Tower. Looking for insight into Japan’s Buddhist and Shinto religions? Head to iconic sites like the Sensoji Temple and the Meiji Shrine.

Tokyo’s vibrant atmosphere is electric and provides an immersive experience of Japanese culture. Wander through the streets and look up at the glittering skyscrapers in the modern areas of Shinjuku and Shibuya, or find unique souvenirs in the shopping and entertainment areas of Roppongi and Ginza districts.

A trip to Tokyo wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the Tsukiji fish market, where exciting auctions take place in the early morning and sushi stalls tempt your stomach in the afternoon. Despite its firm grasp on the future, Tokyo still displays its old-world glamour with sumo tournaments, cherry blossoms and cobblestone lanes that lead to artisan shops and fried octopus stands.

For a break from the bustle of the city, soak in the tranquil ambience of the Tokyo Imperial Palace surrounded by water and stunning gardens, or relax in the spacious green expanse of Ueno Park, famous for its postcard-worthy displays of cherry blossoms in spring.
