Tokyo offers an intriguing mix of ultra modern and ancient
history with a seemingly unlimited choice of shopping,
entertainment, culture and dining. The city's history can be
appreciated in districts such as Asakusa, and in many excellent
museums, historic temples and gardens. Contrary to common
perception, Tokyo also offers a number of attractive green
spaces in the city centre and within relatively short train rides
at its outskirts. The epicentre of Tokyo is the city ward of
Chiyoda Ku which has the Imperial Palace and gardens located
at its centre.
Popular tourist attractions include Tokyo Tower -at 333 metres
is the world's tallest self-supporting steel tower and one of
the most recognisable landmarks in Tokyo. It is rather like
a red version of the Eiffel Tower in Paris at 320metres. The
tallest building in Japan is the 634 metre Tokyo Skytree with
two observation decks at heights of 350 and 450 meters
respectively, making them the highest observation decks in
Japan and some of the highest in the world.
The Odaiba area of Tokyo can be best compared to Canary
Wharf in London - but bigger. This is a popular shopping and
entertainment district on a man-made island in Tokyo Bay in
the south east corner of the central Tokyo . It has grown into
one of Tokyo's most popular tourist attractions with a wide
selection of shopping, dining and leisure options. It is home
to some of Tokyo's boldest architectural creations, such as the
Fuji TV Building, Telecom Centre and Tokyo Big Sight. Oedo
Onsen is a hot spring theme park where you can enjoy various
types of indoor and outdoor baths which are fed by hot spring
water pumped from a depth of 1400 metres.
