About Tokyo

Quartiers au néon, sanctuaires paisibles, cuisine superbe : Tokyo est une immense métropole ordonnée, reliée par des trains ponctuels.

Chaque quartier a des allures de ville à part entière. Le célèbre carrefour de Shibuya et les tours, les bars et les ruelles de Golden Gai à Shinjuku vibrent d'énergie, tandis qu'Harajuku mêle mode des jeunes et calme boisé du sanctuaire Meiji Jingu. À Asakusa, le temple Sensō-ji et sa rue marchande font vivre un Tokyo plus ancien, et Ginza propose de grands magasins raffinés et des galeries.

Top-ranked sights in Tokyo: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
