Tsukiji Outer Market

Sensoji Temple

style=  

Along with being mostly visited temple of Japan with over 20 million of visitors, this ancient 1400 years old buddhist temple is an iconic symbol of Tokyo.

Imperial Palace

style=

Tokyo Skytree

style= 

Tokyo Skytree is the highest freestanding tower in the world with 634 meters height. Offering you spectacular views out over Tokyo, there are two enclosed decks located at heights of 350 and 450 meters respectively, making them the highest observation decks in Japan.

Tokyo Tower

style= 

A symbol of post war recovery in the center of the city. Built in 1958, and standing 333 meters tall, Tokyo Tower serves as a symbol of Tokyo's rebirth after World War II . At the time of its completion, it was the tallest tower in the world, surpassing even its inspiration, the Eiffel Tower.

Ginza

style= 

Ginza is a fancy, upmarket shopping district and it won’t let you forget it. You’re far more likely to find internationally-recognized luxury brand clothes and accessories here than a charming Mom-and-Pop shop or hip independent coffee store. Originally, it was part of the downtown area of Edo (olden days Tokyo), and still has a bit of that old school charm. But the area was always somewhat posh. It was named after a silver mint that used to be there after all.

Takeshita Street

style= 

The 350-meter Takeshita-dori Street is the hub for Japanese pop culture and also known for wacky, youth-driven shops selling colorful and crazy clothes and accessories . It's also a paradise for sweets-lovers - don't miss the fluffy, sugary crepes. There are also several boutiques that specialize in edgy grunge and goth fashion.

Meiji Jingu Shrine

style= 

Located in the heart of Tokyo in a wooded area of over 100,000 trees, Meiji-Jingu is one of Japan’s most famous shrines and is dedicated to Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken. The atmosphere inside the shrine is very peaceful and spiritual.

Odaiba

style= 

A man made island located in Tokyo Bay, Odaiba is a district with excellent shopping and amusement facilities that also boasts beautiful parks and a charming coastline. However, as it is roughly 40 minutes drive from the last destination, the driver will take you there if only left enough time.

Shibuya Crossing

style= 

Shibuya Crossing is the busiest intersection in the world. It is famous for its crowded and colorful district, packed to the gills with shops, restaurants, clubs and avid shoppers.

Omotesando

style= 

Omotesando is known as one of leading cafe areas in Tokyo. Omotesando is very famous that even became the first place to open the shop in Japan when overseas coffee chains consider tapping on Japanese market. It is also the place you will encounter the latest trend of Japan. there you will find peculiar merchandise which will never be found in other areas. There should be plenty of Japanese subculture clothing and goods that are also attracting foreign visitors.
