Tokyo is a city of towering buildings filled with endless possibilities, and the districts offer a labyrinth of streets crowded with restaurants, cafes, karaoke clubs, bars, and gaming centers. With over 2,000 square kilometers to explore, Tokyo spans not just the city, but rugged mountains to the west and subtropical islands to the south. You can shop for high-tech electronics, explore old neighborhoods, sing your heart out at karaoke, enjoy the best sushi, and there are plenty of things to do around.
