Visiting Tokyo
Once just a city, Tokyo became in time a huge metro area where over 35 million people live. It is a mix of ancient and modern, that comes at a very expensive price. This city is the priciest in the world when it comes to living, and it's been so since the beginning of the 90's.
The train system of Tokyo is one of the most efficient and fascinating in the world. If you want to move around the city, the rails are the best method of travel.
If you want to eat, Tokyo cuisine is one of the best available. If you want a term of comparison, Tokyo has twice as many fine dining restaurants than Paris does. As a bonus, if you want some fresh products, you can go to one of the many farmer markets that take place in Tokyo.
As for the sporty side of Tokyo, if you want to experience some local sports, you can go to see some sumo wrestling or you can go with something more international and see a baseball match.
The general look of the city is a modern one, but you can also see temples, parks and ancient buildings with historic value. If you want to see a beautiful garden or park, Tokyo is renowned in this department. Even if you're in an area dense with population, you can still find a superb Japanese garden to visit and rest in.
