TOKYO'S BEST ACTIVITIES
Tokyo is energetic, colorful, and wonderful. It only takes getting off the plane to realize that the Japanese capital will blow your mind. At first, the availability of billboards, lights, and unreadable signs will overwhelm you. But you'll soon be amazed by the whole thing and will long remember it when you return home. Tokyo is a large city, comparable to New York or London in terms of the trillion things to do; the list is never ending.

Visit the world's most well-known fish market.
Sukiji Fish Market, located in the Ginza neighborhood of Tokyo, is the world's largest fish and seafood market. It is most well-known for the tuna sale that takes place here every morning at dawn. Visitors are allowed to attend the tuna sale, but be aware that you will have to wait in line at inconvenient hours of the night. You can also go early in the morning to browse the market stalls and eat some sushi for breakfast. Daiwa Sushi and Sushi Dai are the most popular stalls for eating. If the lines are too long, try another; they are all wonderful and probably the best sushi you will ever have.
Enjoy the cherry blossoms at Shinjuku Gyoen.
This is a must see for park fans. It is one of Tokyo's largest and most popular parks, with three types of gardens: Japanese, French, and English. It's one of the best places to see cherry blossoms because it has a variety of them. It's also a great time to visit in the autumn when the leaves change.
Shibuya captures the crowds of Tokyo.
Shibuya, also known as Tokyo's Times Square, is one of the city's busiest and most colorful districts. Shibuya is defined by massive billboards and screens, shopping malls, and crowds. Your eyes will be attracted to the Shibuya crossing, a massive scramble crossing where cars stop in all directions to allow pedestrians to flood the crossing, walking in all directions and in a hurry. People observe, take photographs, and shop.
At Akibahara, you can play video games and visit a maid cafe.
Akibahara is well-known for being a shopping district for electronics as well as an otaku center for manga, anime, and video games. It's so much fun to walk around the neighborhood and go shopping! Go to the SEGA building, which has a few floors. You'll see people of all ages playing, both men and women, their concentration level at an all-time high.
Take a stroll through the Imperial Palace and its gardens.
Just before to 1868, Tokyo was known as Edo, and the current Imperial complex housed the Tokugawa Shogunate's Edo Castle. When the Tokugawa Shogun was deposed, Japan's capital was relocated from Kyoto to Tokyo, and the Imperial Palace was constructed. The Imperial Palace cannot be visited, but the Imperial Palace Gardens can. They are absolutely incredible, and they are also completely free! I did them without a tour and thoroughly enjoyed them, but I later learned that there is a free tour that might be interesting given the historical significance of the site.
Learn about Tokyo's Red Light District, Kabukicho.
Kabukicho's sea of bright billboards will impress you whether you're quiet or drunk. The area has a reputation due to the abundance of attendants and host bars, erotic entertainment clubs, and love hotels. It is also home to the well-known Robot Restaurant, a theme restaurant where you can dine while watching a robot cabaret. Why not pay a visit if you are interested in such oddities? Book ahead of time because it is less expensive and sometimes sells out. If you don't want to go, the outside is still pretty cool; it's colorful, there are giant robots for photos, and there's a catchy/annoying song playing that will stay in your head for the rest of your life, so stop by.
At the Meiji Shrine, help absorb some culture.
Meiji Jingu is a Shinto shrine dedicated to Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken's worshipped spirits. The shrine is located in a forest of more than a hundred thousand trees in the heart of Tokyo. When you enter the Meiji complex, it feels like a sanctuary in the desert. You quickly forget you're in the middle of the city's madness and begin smelling nature again. If Tokyo is your only stop in Japan, the shrine is a great way to learn about Shintoism and it's free.
