Tokyo can be something of a culture shock to first-time visitors. We say get involved!
There’s all manner of things to do in Tokyo. Sure, there’s all the sushi you can handle and a chance to let loose in the planet’s finest karaoke bars, but there’s plenty of history and culture on show too. Although for many visitors it’s the future that makes a flight to Tokyo a must do.
The skyscrapers of Shinjuku will really impress you, while the dazzling neon of the Akihibara district lights up thousands of gadgets that make the West look like it’s still in the Stone Age. Either way, from the frantic bustle of Shibuya to the calm of a long soak in an onsen, Tokyo’s got the lot.
