How to travel?

Japanese capital of Tokyo has a very well developed public transport system. The city offers subway, railway, highway, and airport services. Cheap flights to Tokyo reach their finish at one of several Tokyo airports. Narita International Airport is the best starting point for having an adventure in this huge city. If you wish to see more, choose the comfortable high-speed railway lines of shinkansen that are well-known as one of many Japanese technical miracles.

What to taste?

Japanese cuisine is considered as not only one of the healthiest cuisines in the world, but one of the most delicious and surprising ones as well. Japanese dishes can be likened to art. Food is light and usually prepared from seafood, sea plants, fish, rice, and vegetables. There is a really wide seafood variety offered, as well as different kinds of seaweed and algae. Food is flavoured with soy sauce, wasabi, or rice vinegar. Tokyo also offers many world-wide-known cafés as well, such as Starbucks.

What to see?

Tokyo is where both many modern skyscrapers and little temples that are counting their age in the hundreds of years are located. You should visit Shinjuku, Golden Gai (more than 200 bars between 6 streets), and definitely the Shibuya district, which is a place that best reflects the noisy, lively, and colourful spirit of Tokyo city. Tokyo fashion centre is the Harajuku district, while Ueno is the place of nature and ancient history. Pay a visit to the Tsukiji fish market, visit the Tokyo Skytree, serving as an observation tower, and go see the Akihabara shopping district.

What to do?

After arriving to Tokyo, you simply must visit the Yoyogi park, so popular among the local youth. Those travelling with their children should not miss an opportunity to visit the Tokyo Disneyland and step into the Imperial palace as well. Tokyo will not let you get bored easily, as it is full of fun activities and opportunities to have a drink. If you’re keen on going shopping, head over to the Ginza area or, if you want to try something different, dive into the Akihbara’s haven for gaming machines and comics’ fans.
