Message

Welcome to Tokyo! Tokyo has a unique co-existence of the traditional and the modern. While Tokyo shows you advanced technologies and cutting-edge cultures including Anime and fashion, Tokyo still has traces of frugal cultures of the Edo Period. Besides, Tokyo is very safe and clean, so you can enjoy strolling in Tokyo even at midnight. Additionally, you can enjoy the view of modern high-rise buildings in the center of Tokyo, while appreciating untouched beautiful nature surrounded by rich greenery and water in the suburbs of Tokyo. I’d like to help you create wonderful memories of Tokyo. See you soon!
