Images Of Tokyo

It's hard to think of a city as fascinating as Tokyo. And calling it a 'city' doesn't do it justice. This is a metropolis that encompasses a collection of mini-cities, each with their own intriguing attributes. You have the bright lights of Shibuya, the eclectic people of Harajuku, the electronic gadgets of Akihabara, the hedonism of Roppongi, and the craziness of Shinjuku. This is one of the world's great cities with more to offer than most places. And while some parts may not suit everyone's taste, there isn't an area that will fail to excite you.

    Should improve the cleanlinees

    Friendly staff, very good location: near shoping mall (Matsuya) which include 100 yen shop (Seria). small room. Shower room in 2nd floor should be bigger and have properly drainage. Very disgusting when you must plunge your feet to slop. I found dusts in bed sheet and made me sneeze.

    Amazing Japanese city.

    Despite being a huge city, Tokyo is a place where tourists in two or three days know the main tourist spots. I confess that I thought would be little, but I was 4 days and thought well enough. I have problems to adapt to local food. But I found a delicious Brazilian restaurant. It is also nice to note that the people of tokyo is extremely kind and polite back soon there.

    Insider Tip:TUCANOS GRILL - BRAZILIAN FOOD - AKIHABARA

    Great for Exploring

    I lived in Tokyo for a year, so my review is going to be very biased. While Tokyo doesn't have a lot of temples, it does have parks (Yoyogi, Inokashira, Yurakucho) and lots of amazing districts to go to.

    Insider Tip:Go to Harajuku, Omotesando-dori exit, and go straight and take the first right. Then you can continue to Yoyogi Park and straight into Shibuya. It's a great afternoon walk especially on weekends, where you can see wandering musicians.

    Tokyo

    I got to spend 3 days here in Tokyo. In my mind 2 would have been just enough. Not a lot to see here. Just a big, opaque city with a few sights and bad food (if you don't eat any meat). But that's my personal judgement, doesn't mean anybody else feels the same about it that I do.

    Insider Tip:Wish I was given some.

    Tokyo

    Tokyo is great and unlike any other city in Asia. It has many different neighborhoods that all have a slightly different feel. Remember to look up, since there are hidden gems hidden on every level of a building. The subway systems were amazing and the trains came quite frequently.

    Insider Tip:If you want to go out at night, the trains do not run around midnight until 5 am so either stay near somewhere you want to go out, like in Shinjuku or Shibuya or prepare to pay for a cab unless you want to stay out all night.
