Attractive Places to Visit in Tokyo and Japan

Japan has an incredible variety of museums, galleries, shrines and temples to keep you preoccupied for many days. In the city of Tokyo there is a wide spectrum of places to visit, from the very distinguished Imperial Palace, home of the Emperor and past shogunates, to the legendary Tokyo Tower, an urban landmark in many Godzilla movies :-)

The Megalopolis of Tokyo

What you will notice as you travel within Tokyo is this constant battle of contrasting opposites: the gigantic vs. the micro; the ancient contesting with the futuristic and Western vs. Eastern cultural influences. No other city in the world is like Tokyo.

No one page of description can ever give the full picture of Tokyo. Remember, you will definitely encounter these 2 issues while visiting the many splendid tourist attractions in Tokyo:

(1) the lack of English spoken at some sites and attractions.

(2) the incredible complex, the Tokyo Metro transportation system: the majority of attractions we will talk about are within walking distance of a major train or subway station.
