Tokyo is a city forever reaching into the future, resulting in sci-fi streetscapes of crackling neon and soaring towers. Yet it is also a city steeped in history, where you can find traces of the shoguns capital on the kabuki stage or under the cherry blossoms. Its a tapestry of sensorial madness unlike anywhere else in the world.
The worlds largest fish market is Tokyos most unique sight, and a rare peek into the workings of the city. It's only around in its current form for a limited time too: the market moves in November 2016.

Salt-slinging, belly-slapping and solemn ritual are all part of the spectacle that is sumo, Japans ancient, traditional sport. Catch a tournament at the national stadium in Rygoku, or a morning practice session.
Tokyo Top Sights
Tokyos most famous Shint shrine is shrouded in woods. It's a peaceful haven that feels worlds away from the city, even though it is right in the thick of it.
Tokyo Top Sights
The spiritual home of Tokyoites' ancestors, Sens-ji was founded more than 1000 years before Tokyo got its start. Today the temple retains an alluring, lively atmosphere redolent of Edo (old Tokyo under the shogun).
Tokyo Top Sights
Kabuki, a form of stylised, traditional Japanese theatre, features stories based on popular legend and an all-male cast in dramatic make-up and decadent costumes. Catch a performance at Kabuki-za, Tokyos newly rebuilt kabuki theatre.

This is no ordinary mall: its a utopian microcity with a world-class art museum. Love it or hate it, Roppongi Hills is integral to understanding the Tokyo of today, and possibly the Tokyo of tomorrow.
Tokyo Top Sights
Japans premier museum houses the worlds largest collection of Japanese art and antiquities. It's room after room of glistening swords, gilded screens, lavish kimonos and colourful ukiyo-e (woodblock prints).
Tokyo Top Sights
Japans national symbol is a perfect, snowcapped cone. On a clear day, you can catch a glimpse from atop a Tokyo skyscraper, but nothing compares to the thrill of seeing a sunrise from the summit.
Tokyo Top Sights
Take a tour of the leafy grounds of the imperial family's residence, or content yourself to stroll along the ancient moat and climb an old castle keep in the garden.
Tokyo Top Sights
Bubbling hot springs piped in from below Tokyo Bay fill the baths at edo Onsen Monogatari, a curious combination of public bathhouse and theme park that is Japanese to the core.
Tokyo Top Sights
Even those uninitiated in the magical world of master animator Miyazaki Hayao (Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away) will find this museum dedicated to him and his works enchanting. Fans won't want to leave.
