Highlights

About Tokyo:

Tokyo is one of the world's most contradictory cities. On the one hand, blinding neon signs, incessant noise and bumper-to-bumper traffic can make this city of 12 million seem completely overwhelming. Yet behind the barely ordered chaos lie remnants of a very different past. Tranquil back streets, bonsai trees, ancient temples and shrines convey their quiet power to the traveler who is willing to look and listen. And, at the centre of it all, is the Imperial Palace - home to the emperor and a tangible link to the past.

Many of the city's highlights are free: stroll through the evocative Shitamachi (low city) area around Asakusa and the major Buddhist temple Senso-ji; visit the tranquil wooded grounds of Meiji-jingu, the city's most venerable Shinto shrine; experience the frenetic fish market at Tsukiji. Though Tokyo is one of the most expensive cities in the world, it also offers free and surprising delights.
