Tokyo

Tokyo is a beautiful metropolis where more than 40 Million people live and work. Almost one third of Japan lives in and around Tokyo. It is Japan's biggest and most important city. It's the seat of power for the last 150 years. You can spend days and weeks in Tokyo alone. It's hard to cover everything in Tokyo. Some of the places to visit with pictures. By any means, this list is a very small list, you can spend a lot of time in Tokyo.

Senso-ji - Buddhist temple in Tokyo. Next to this temple is Nakamise-dori shopping street. It's a must visit to check out delicacies, souvenirs, jewelry and other goods.

(McDonald's is omnipresent)

Imperial Palace Gardens - The lush and verdant garden around the Palace. Do visit the Wakadura Fountain Park Cafe, its a nice place to enjoy a hot cappuccino (a bit pricey, but totally worth it.)

Ueno Park - Green space in the middle of the city, kinda Central Park in NYC. There is a zoo as well. The picture below is of a Samurai show at Ueno Park.

Harajuku - Famous for checking out latest fashion at Takeshita street. This place has a nice vibe to it. If you want to eat decent Udon, try out Hanamaru Udon on the Takeshita street.

Shinjuku - Another happening place, lots of things to do.
