Three Must See Places In Tokyo

By Freddy McCandless


Have you opted to turn Japanese this summer? If Tokyo is part of your trip , here are three spots that you definitely must see. So let's dive right in.

Ginza

One place you should really positively make time for is Ginza. And the best time to go would need to be at night so that you could see all of the neon signs at its best, make that at its brightest. All of the primary intersections are crammed with them. You could do a lot of shopping here, haggle and get a good deal, not to mention all of great Japanese food around.

Asakusa

Asakusa is actually the more historical side to the ever techy tokyo. Even today, what was once called Edo, this spot barely changed at all. Even with the repairs that have been made over the years, this area will certainly give you a closer look at Japanese heritage. The Sensoji Temple is positively the highlight. There is no denying that this Buddhist temple is a popular choice for tourists. It is true that the temple is gorgeous, but the Nakamise, a shopping street, adds to all of the hype. You will get about 200 meters of shops where you can find the perfect souvenir be it a folding fan some yukatas and T-shirts. You will also get to take your pick of time-honored Japanese street food.

Akihabara

Akihabara is actually a tech savvy sanctuary. There are so many to choose from. Just a tip before you go shopping crazy, you must positively check out the power supply and see if it is compatible with yours back home. You will also get your pick of anime shops as well. Plus, you will almost certainly be able to find some interesting Japanese goods that you won't be able to get in other parts of the country.
