Route

1. The Yanaka Cemetery in Tokyo is known as a historic site with a peaceful atmosphere, where prominent figures, including Yoshinobu Tokugawa, the last shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate, are laid to rest. The Tokugawa family ruled Japan for over 250 years and shaped the history of Japan during the Edo period (1603-1868). Yoshinobu's resignation marked the end of the samurai era and the beginning of Japan's modernization in the Meiji Restoration. The beautiful cherry blossoms bloom in the spring, making it a popular spot for both history and nature lovers. Translated with (free version)

About Tokio

Neonverlichte wijken, stille heiligdommen, voortreffelijk eten en eigen buurten vormen Tokio, een uitgestrekte, ordelijke metropool vol stipte treinen.

Elke wijk voelt als een eigen stad. De beroemde kruising van Shibuya en de torens, bars en steegjes van Golden Gai in Shinjuku gonzen van energie, terwijl Harajuku jeugdmode combineert met de beboste rust van het Meiji Jingu-heiligdom. In Asakusa houden de Sensō-ji-tempel en zijn winkelstraat een ouder Tokio in leven, en Ginza biedt gepolijste warenhuizen en galeries.

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