City guides and stories for Tokyo.

The essentials

Tokyo is huge, but the city becomes manageable when you plan by neighborhood. Keep one or two anchors per day and leave room for food streets, stations, and small discoveries.

Getting Here

Most international travelers land at Haneda or Narita. Haneda is closer to central Tokyo, while Narita has wider international flight options. Airport trains are usually easier than taxis.

Top attractions

Start with Shibuya Crossing, Asakusa and Senso-ji, Meiji Shrine, Harajuku, Shinjuku, Ginza, and a skyline view from Shibuya Sky or Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building.
