All of these are reminders that the modern city also has a long history.<\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Senso-ji Temple and the Asakusa District<\/h3><br><br><p>Senso-ji, in the Asakusa district, is one of Tokyo&#8217;s best-known symbols and is considered the oldest Buddhist temple in the city. According to tradition, in the year 628 two fisherman brothers found a statue of Kannon (the figure of compassion in Buddhism) in their net in the river now called the Sumida, and the temple was built to house the statue. The way to the temple passes through the Kaminarimon (Thunder Gate) with its huge red lantern, and continues along Nakamise-dori, a street of about 250 meters with stalls selling souvenirs and traditional Japanese snacks, leading up to the main hall and the five-story pagoda.<\/p><br><br><p>Entry to the temple grounds is free. The main hall is open from 6:00 to 17:00, except from October to March, when it opens at 6:30. During the day the place is very crowded, so it&#8217;s best to come early in the morning or after sunset (when the gates, the pagoda and the main hall are lit up and the grounds are much calmer).<\/p><br><br><p>Want to know the stories behind the temple?\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>You can join a two-hour guided tour that takes you with a guide through the Kaminarimon, along Nakamise street, to Senso-ji and to the adjoining Asakusa Shrine. At the end of the tour you also stroll through the alleys of Denboin-dori and Hoppy Street, a street of izakayas (small Japanese pubs).<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/asakusa-sensoji-temple-walking-tour-tokyo-t586567\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and tickets for the guided tour of Asakusa and Senso-ji.<\/a><\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Meiji Jingu Shrine and Harajuku<\/h3><br><br><p>Meiji Jingu is a Shinto shrine (Shinto is Japan&#8217;s traditional religion), dedicated to Emperor Meiji and his wife, Empress Shoken. The complex was completed in 1920, but most of the buildings burned in the World War II bombings of 1945 and were only rebuilt in 1958. Around the shrine is a large forest of about 100,000 trees donated from all over Japan.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>From Harajuku station you enter the forest at the south entrance, and from there it&#8217;s a 10 to 15-minute walk to the shrine along a wide, shaded path between the trees. It&#8217;s hard to believe the busy station is right behind you. According to tradition, the middle of the path is reserved for the gods, so it&#8217;s customary to walk along its sides.<\/p><br><br><p>On the way you&#8217;ll pass through torii gates (gates that mark the entrance to a Shinto shrine), and see a wall of decorated sake barrels donated by breweries from all over Japan. Opposite them stand wine barrels donated by winemakers from Burgundy in France. The shrine is open every day from sunrise to sunset, and entry is free. After your visit, you can cross to the other side of Harajuku, to colorful, crowded Takeshita Street, a pedestrian street with small fashion boutiques and stalls selling crepes and rainbow cotton candy. In short, the perfect contrast to the quiet of the shrine.<\/p><br><br><p>If you want to really understand the place you&#8217;re visiting, you can join a 90-minute guided tour in a small group with a local guide who explains Shinto and the institution of the emperor in Japan. The tour leaves from Harajuku station, passes through the torii gates, the wine and sake barrels and the shrine itself, and returns to the station.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-meiji-shrine-walking-tour-shinto-imperial-system-t855090\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and tickets for the guided tour of Meiji Jingu.<\/a><\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Imperial Palace and the East Gardens (Imperial Palace East Gardens)<\/h3><br><br><p>The Imperial Palace, home of the Emperor of Japan, is in the heart of the city, a short walk from Tokyo Station. The palace itself is closed to visitors, but the East Gardens have been open to the public since 1968. They were built on part of the grounds of Edo Castle, the seat of the Tokugawa shoguns (Japan&#8217;s military rulers). In the gardens you can see the stone walls and the base of the castle&#8217;s main keep, alongside a well-tended Japanese garden.<\/p><br><br><p>Entry to the gardens is free. They&#8217;re closed on Mondays and Fridays, from December 28 to January 3 and on days of official events at the Imperial Court, so it&#8217;s worth checking the website of the Imperial Household Agency (the government body that manages the affairs of the imperial family) before you go. If you also want to see the palace&#8217;s inner grounds, which are closed to visitors, you can join the agency&#8217;s official tour. It&#8217;s a tour of about an hour that passes among the buildings in the palace grounds, including the Fujimi-yagura watchtower, and crosses the bridge in front of the palace gate. It&#8217;s worth downloading the agency&#8217;s app in advance, which has an audio guide in English. The tours don&#8217;t run on Sundays and Mondays or on some holidays. You can register in advance on the agency&#8217;s website, or get a ticket on the day at the Kikyo-mon gate, but come early because at some point the tickets run out. You must bring your passport.<\/p><br><br><p>And if you want to learn about the history of Edo Castle and the shoguns, you can join a two-hour guided tour with an English-speaking guide. This tour doesn&#8217;t enter the palace&#8217;s inner grounds but focuses on the East Gardens and the castle remains: it passes through the Ote-mon gate, the Ninomaru garden and the remains of Edo Castle.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-castle-imperial-palace-historical-walking-tour-t893292\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and tickets for the guided tour of the Imperial Palace and the East Gardens.<\/a><\/p><br><br><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"wp-image-7902\" src=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Shibuya-Crossroad.jpg\" alt=\"Shibuya Crossing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Shibuya-Crossroad.jpg 800w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Shibuya-Crossroad-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Shibuya-Crossroad-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><br><br><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Views over the City<\/h2><br><br><p>Tokyo is a vast city, and there&#8217;s no better way to grasp its size than to go up high. The city has several impressive observation decks, each with a different view. If you only have time for one, I&#8217;d recommend simply choosing according to what fits your schedule and the area you&#8217;re exploring that day.<\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shibuya Sky and the Shibuya Scramble Crossing<\/h3><br><br><p>The Shibuya crossing is one of the places most associated with Tokyo. Every time the lights turn green for pedestrians, hundreds of people cross at once from every direction. Next to the station exit stands the statue of Hachiko, an Akita dog. Hachiko kept coming to the station to wait for his owner, Professor Hidesaburo Ueno, for almost ten years after the professor died in 1925. The statue is very popular, so expect a short line for a photo.<\/p><br><br><p>To get the perfect photo, it&#8217;s best to see the crossing from above. Shibuya Sky is an open-air observation deck on the roof of the Shibuya Scramble Square tower, at a height of about 230 meters. From the roof you see the crossing right below you and the city spreading out in every direction, and on clear days you can also see Mount Fuji. Tickets are timed for a specific entry slot, and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.klook.com\/activity\/70672-shibuya-sky-tokyo\/?aid=97515\">you can buy them here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>Tickets for sunset are the most sought after and sell out quickly. So if seeing the sunset matters to you, book as early as possible. Note that in stormy weather, for example strong wind or a thunderstorm, the roof may close.<\/p><br><br><p>If you want to understand a bit more about this important crossing and its surroundings, join <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-shibuya-urban-design-walk-architecture-city-change-t1325373\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">a guided tour<\/a> between the Hachiko statue, Center Gai street, the Parco shopping center, Miyashita Park and Shibuya Yokocho (a covered food alley), ending with the view from Shibuya Sky. Entry to the observation deck is included in the tour.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tokyo Skytree<\/h3><br><br><p>At 634 meters, the Skytree is the tallest structure in Japan. It opened in 2012 and serves mainly as a broadcasting tower, but it also has two observation levels. The first is the Tembo Deck at 350 meters, whose lower floor has a transparent glass floor. The second is the Tembo Galleria at about 450 meters, a sloping ramp that spirals around the tower and climbs to the highest point of the observation area. At the base of the tower is the Tokyo Solamachi complex, with shops and restaurants, which is also home to the Sumida Aquarium, which you can read about in the article <a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/%d7%98%d7%95%d7%a7%d7%99%d7%95-%d7%a2%d7%9d-%d7%99%d7%9c%d7%93%d7%99%d7%9d\/\">Tokyo with Kids<\/a>. From the Asakusa district, where Senso-ji is, you can walk to the Skytree in about a quarter of an hour, so it&#8217;s easy to combine both on the same day.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-skytree-admission-ticket-t215997\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here to buy an entry ticket to the Tokyo Skytree observation deck.<\/a> The advantage of booking your ticket in advance is skipping the line at the ticket desks.<\/p><br><br><p>Note that you can choose between several types of ticket: the Tembo Deck only, the Tembo Deck and the Tembo Galleria, an evening ticket that includes an alcoholic drink, or a morning ticket that includes a soft drink and a snack.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" class=\"wp-image-52057\" src=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/z3rajiraiya-observation-deck-7103210_1920_800x531.jpg\" alt=\"Tokyo Skytree, Tokyo, Japan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/z3rajiraiya-observation-deck-7103210_1920_800x531.jpg 800w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/z3rajiraiya-observation-deck-7103210_1920_800x531-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/z3rajiraiya-observation-deck-7103210_1920_800x531-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/z3rajiraiya-observation-deck-7103210_1920_800x531-600x398.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tokyo Tower<\/h3><br><br><p>The red-and-white Tokyo Tower, designed in the spirit of the Eiffel Tower, was completed in 1958 and stands 333 meters tall. Even today, when the city has taller buildings, it remains one of Tokyo&#8217;s most striking symbols, especially in the evening, when it&#8217;s lit up from sunset until midnight. The tower has two observation levels: the Main Deck at 150 meters and the Top Deck at 250 meters. It&#8217;s near Shiba Park and Zojo-ji Temple, both of which have a lovely view of the lit-up tower. Opening hours are 9:00 to 23:00, with last entry at 22:30.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-tower-admission-ticket-t290925\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here to buy entry tickets to Tokyo Tower.<\/a> You can choose between several types of ticket: the Main Deck only (valid for six months, with no set date), both decks (you choose an entry time in advance), or the &#8220;Diamond&#8221; tour, which includes entry to both levels without lines, a lounge with drinks and snacks, a personal guide and a souvenir photo.<\/p><br><br><p>Note that tickets can&#8217;t be cancelled after booking.<\/p><br><br><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"597\" class=\"wp-image-52055\" src=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gusbellsstudio-tokyo-tower-825196_1920_800x597.jpg\" alt=\"Tokyo Tower, Tokyo, Japan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gusbellsstudio-tokyo-tower-825196_1920_800x597.jpg 800w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gusbellsstudio-tokyo-tower-825196_1920_800x597-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gusbellsstudio-tokyo-tower-825196_1920_800x597-768x573.jpg 768w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gusbellsstudio-tokyo-tower-825196_1920_800x597-600x448.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip: A Free View from the Metropolitan Government Building<\/h3><br><br><p>In Shinjuku, on the 45th floor of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, there are two observation decks, one in each tower, at a height of about 202 meters. Entry is free, and it&#8217;s an excellent way to see the city from above without booking anything in advance. Opening hours and closing days differ between the two towers, so it&#8217;s worth checking the official website before you go.<\/p><br><br><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Museums and Art<\/h2><br><br><p>Tokyo is also a city of art and culture, from ancient treasures to digital exhibitions like nothing else. I&#8217;ve gathered three very different museums here, so you&#8217;re sure to find the one for you.<\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The teamLab Exhibitions: Planets and Borderless<\/h3><br><br><p>teamLab is a Japanese collective of artists, programmers and engineers that creates immersive digital art exhibitions: spaces full of light, reflections, sound and movement that respond to visitors and change all the time. Tokyo has two permanent teamLab exhibitions, each offering a slightly different experience.<\/p><br><br><p>teamLab Planets is in Toyosu, near the bay. You enter the exhibition barefoot, and in some rooms you walk through knee-deep water, so it&#8217;s best to wear trousers you can roll up. The exhibition is due to run until the end of 2027. That&#8217;s a temporary date, and it has been extended before.<\/p><br><br><p>teamLab Borderless reopened in a new location in the Azabudai Hills complex in February 2024. Here the works move between rooms and &#8220;cross&#8221; the walls, which is where the name Borderless comes from. We visited Borderless with our son, who was then 3.5, and he was captivated by the lights, the sounds and the interactions. We chose Borderless rather than Planets because here you don&#8217;t follow a fixed route. A tip from experience: it&#8217;s worth coming toward closing time, when most of the rooms are already empty. From personal experience, highly recommended!\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>For both exhibitions you buy a ticket for a specific entry time. Tickets sell out quickly, especially on weekends, so I&#8217;d recommend booking as early as possible. Note that the exhibitions are less suitable if you&#8217;re sensitive to lights.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>At teamLab Planets you can only enter during the first half hour of the time slot you chose. You can&#8217;t book a ticket for the same day, and you can&#8217;t cancel after booking. There&#8217;s also a premium ticket that shortens the wait at the entrance, but not the lines for the rooms inside the exhibition.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-teamlab-planets-tokyo-digital-art-museum-entry-ticket-t260407\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here to buy an entry ticket to teamLab Planets.<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.klook.com\/activity\/20707-teamlab-borderless-admission-ticket-tokyo\/?aid=97515\">Click here to buy an entry ticket to teamLab Borderless.<\/a><\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tokyo National Museum<\/h3><br><br><p>The Tokyo National Museum, in Ueno Park, is the oldest institution of its kind in Japan. Its origins go back to an exhibition held in 1872. The collection has about 120,000 items, including about 90 that have been designated National Treasures of Japan. At any given time more than 3,000 items are on display, including samurai swords and armor, sculptures, ceramics and utensils, from Japan&#8217;s earliest periods to the Edo period. Don&#8217;t miss the Gallery of Horyuji Treasures: ancient items that Horyuji Temple in Nara donated to the imperial family in 1878.<\/p><br><br><p>It&#8217;s an excellent place to get to know Japan&#8217;s history and art, and also to spend a rainy day. The museum is closed on Mondays. When a Monday is a holiday, the museum opens that day and closes the next day. It&#8217;s easy to combine your visit with a walk in Ueno Park, which I write about below.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.klook.com\/activity\/115796-tokyo-national-museum\/?aid=97515\">Click here to buy tickets to the museum.<\/a><\/p><br><br><p>Given the size of the museum, if you want a focused tour of the more interesting and important items, with explanations of what you&#8217;re seeing, it&#8217;s worth taking a tour with an English-speaking guide. There are two-hour or 4-hour tours, and they suit kids from age 10. Entry tickets to the museum are included in the tour price.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-national-museum-private-tour-by-govt-licenced-guide-t601494\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and bookings for a private tour of the Tokyo National Museum.<\/a><\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Ghibli Museum<\/h3><br><br><p>If you, or your kids, love Studio Ghibli films such as &#8220;My Neighbor Totoro&#8221; and &#8220;Spirited Away&#8221;, this museum is a must. The museum is in Mitaka in western Tokyo, in the western part of Inokashira Park. It opened in 2001, and it was designed by director Hayao Miyazaki himself. The main hall is reminiscent of the bathhouse in &#8220;Spirited Away&#8221;, and the museum also has a replica of the Catbus from &#8220;My Neighbor Totoro&#8221;. In the exhibitions you&#8217;ll discover how animated films are made, and the small cinema screens short films you can only see at the museum. Note that photography is not allowed inside the museum.<\/p><br><br><p>Entry to the museum is only possible with a ticket booked in advance for a specific date and time, and tickets aren&#8217;t sold on site. Tickets for each month go on sale on the 10th of the previous month, and they sell out very quickly. The museum is closed on Tuesdays and occasionally on other days too, so check the opening hours on the official website. You&#8217;ll find more information about the Ghibli Museum in our article <a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/%d7%98%d7%95%d7%a7%d7%99%d7%95-%d7%a2%d7%9d-%d7%99%d7%9c%d7%93%d7%99%d7%9d\/\">Tokyo with Kids<\/a>.<\/p><br><br><p>If you couldn&#8217;t get tickets on the official website, there&#8217;s a way around the problem: you can book a 90-minute guided visit with a local guide that includes an entry ticket. You choose a morning, afternoon or any-time entry, and the exact entry time is set only after the ticket is issued. Note that the ticket isn&#8217;t guaranteed at the time of booking. If no ticket is found for you, you&#8217;ll be offered another date or a full refund. Once the ticket is issued, it can&#8217;t be cancelled or changed. The booking must be made with your full name as it appears in your passport.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/mitaka-l152620\/ghibli-museum-mitaka-tour-with-local-guide-ticket-t1206557\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for a guided visit to the Ghibli Museum including an entry ticket.<\/a><\/p><br><br><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"wp-image-52053\" src=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sofi5t-japan-4141578_1920_800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Tokyo, Japan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sofi5t-japan-4141578_1920_800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sofi5t-japan-4141578_1920_800x533-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sofi5t-japan-4141578_1920_800x533-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/sofi5t-japan-4141578_1920_800x533-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><br><br><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Parks and Gardens<\/h2><br><br><p>After a few days of crowded trains and bustling streets, you&#8217;ll be glad to discover that Tokyo also has quiet green corners. The two parks below are also attractions in their own right, especially during cherry blossom season in spring and autumn foliage season.<\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden<\/h3><br><br><p>A short walk from Shinjuku Station, one of the busiest stations in the city, hides a huge national garden covering about 58 hectares. In the Edo period this was the residence of the Naito family, a family of daimyo (feudal lords). Later the site became the imperial garden, completed in 1906. The garden was destroyed in the World War II bombings of 1945, and opened to the general public as a national garden in 1949.<\/p><br><br><p>What makes Shinjuku Gyoen special is its combination of three garden styles: a formal, symmetrical French-style garden with an avenue of plane trees; an English-style landscape garden with a wide lawn and large trees; and a traditional Japanese strolling garden, with the historic Taiwan Pavilion (Kyu-Goryotei). The garden also has a large greenhouse with tropical and subtropical plants, including orchids. It&#8217;s the oldest greenhouse of its kind in Japan, and it was rebuilt in 2012 as a greenhouse for conserving endangered plants. In spring more than a thousand cherry trees of different varieties bloom in the garden, from late March to late April, so the season here is relatively long compared to the rest of the city.<\/p><br><br><p>The garden is closed on Mondays, except during blossom season (March 25 to April 24) and the first half of November, when it&#8217;s open every day. When a Monday is a holiday, the garden closes the next day. The garden has three gates: Shinjuku, Okido and Sendagaya. You can enter with a rechargeable transport card (such as Suica) or with an electronic ticket on your phone. Note that alcohol isn&#8217;t allowed in the garden.<\/p><br><br><p>The entry ticket is valid for 180 days from the date of purchase, so you don&#8217;t need to commit to a date in advance. The ticket can&#8217;t be cancelled, but if the garden closes because of the weather, you can use it on another day.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.klook.com\/activity\/174227-shinjuku-gyoen\/?aid=97515\">Click here to buy an entry ticket to Shinjuku Gyoen.<\/a><\/p><br><br><p>You can also take a two-hour guided tour of the garden with an English-speaking guide. The tour leaves from Shinjuku-gyoenmae station and ends at Sendagaya station. It covers all three garden styles, and its price includes the garden entry ticket.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-shinjuku-gyoen-national-garden-guided-walking-tour-t1116068\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and tickets for the guided tour of Shinjuku Gyoen.<\/a><\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ueno Park<\/h3><br><br><p>Ueno Park is one of the first public parks in Japan. It was established in 1873, on land that once belonged to Kan&#8217;ei-ji Temple. Today it&#8217;s one of the most pleasant places in Tokyo to spend half a day: it has shaded paths and Shinobazu Pond, where you can rent a pedal boat. In spring hundreds of cherry trees bloom in the park, and thousands of locals come to picnic beneath them (hanami, blossom viewing). In the evening lanterns light up along the paths, creating a romantic, magical scene. Note that the park is very crowded at this time of year.<\/p><br><br><p>But the main reason to come to Ueno is the museums. Inside the park are the Tokyo National Museum, which I wrote about above, the National Museum of Western Art, designed by the architect Le Corbusier and declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2016, and the National Museum of Nature and Science. The Museum of Nature and Science also displays Hachiko, the loyal dog from Shibuya Crossing. Entry to the park is free.<\/p><br><br><p>Right next to the park is the Ameyoko market, a bustling street with food stalls, fruit and shops, which you can also read about <a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/en\/tokyo-travel-guide\/\">in our Tokyo guide<\/a>. It&#8217;s a great place to end your visit.<\/p><br><br><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"wp-image-52059\" src=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/16944022-shinobazu-pond-6916035_1920_800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Ueno Park, Tokyo, Japan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/16944022-shinobazu-pond-6916035_1920_800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/16944022-shinobazu-pond-6916035_1920_800x600-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/16944022-shinobazu-pond-6916035_1920_800x600-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/16944022-shinobazu-pond-6916035_1920_800x600-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><br><br><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Attractions in Tokyo<\/h2><br><br><p>Here are a few more attractions that show very different sides of Tokyo: food, pop culture and the city&#8217;s traditional side.<\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tsukiji Outer Market<\/h3><br><br><p>Tsukiji was Tokyo&#8217;s famous wholesale fish market. In 2018 the wholesale market, including the tuna auctions, moved to a new site in Toyosu, but the outer section stayed where it was, with more than 400 shops, stalls and small restaurants. This is the place to taste rice bowls with fresh seafood (kaisendon), grilled scallops and squid, and tamagoyaki (sweet Japanese omelet on a stick). You can also buy Japanese knives, kitchenware, tableware and food products.<\/p><br><br><p>Opening hours vary from shop to shop, but most of the market is active roughly between 9:00 and 14:00. Many shops are closed on Sundays, some Wednesdays and holidays, so it&#8217;s worth checking the market&#8217;s calendar before you go. I&#8217;d recommend coming in the morning, before the popular dishes run out, and bringing cash, because most shops accept cash only.<\/p><br><br><p>Curious to learn more about the place?\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>For a guided tour of Tsukiji Market <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-tsukiji-fish-market-food-and-walking-tour-t695948\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">and the<\/a>Buddhist temple Tsukiji Hongan-ji, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-tsukiji-fish-market-food-and-walking-tour-t695948\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">click here<\/a>. Note that food and drinks aren&#8217;t included in the tour; you buy them along the way.<\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Akihabara<\/h3><br><br><p>Akihabara, also known as &#8220;Electric Town&#8221;, developed after World War II as a center for selling electrical goods and electronics. In the 1980s and 1990s it also became the center of otaku culture (fans of anime, manga and video games). Today the streets are full of shops selling video games, manga, collectible figures and computers, arcades and maid caf\u00e9s, where the waitresses are dressed as maids and welcome customers as if they were masters returning home.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>On Sundays, from 13:00 to 18:00, a section of Chuo-dori, the neighborhood&#8217;s main street, closes to traffic and becomes a pedestrian street, which is an especially pleasant time to wander around.<\/p><br><br><p>To step into the world of anime with someone who knows it, it&#8217;s worth joining a small-group guided tour that visits anime and retro gaming shops and plays Mario Kart at an arcade. You can choose between a two-hour tour and a three-hour tour that also includes a visit to a maid caf\u00e9, with a drink or dessert and a Polaroid photo.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/akihabara-anime-gaming-guided-walking-tour-t599972\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and bookings for a guided tour of Akihabara.<\/a><\/p><br><br><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" class=\"wp-image-52061\" src=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gavilla-japan-1424672_1920_800x532.jpg\" alt=\"Akihabara, Tokyo, Japan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gavilla-japan-1424672_1920_800x532.jpg 800w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gavilla-japan-1424672_1920_800x532-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gavilla-japan-1424672_1920_800x532-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/gavilla-japan-1424672_1920_800x532-600x399.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><br><br><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shinjuku at Night: Kabukicho, Golden Gai and Omoide Yokocho<\/h4><br><br><p>When darkness falls, Shinjuku fills with neon signs and people. Kabukicho is Shinjuku&#8217;s entertainment district, with restaurants, bars and clubs, and a giant Godzilla head peers over the roof of the Toho building. Lots of tourists walk the main streets, but watch out for street touts trying to lure passersby into bars: it&#8217;s best to politely decline and keep walking, and only go into places you&#8217;ve chosen yourself.<\/p><br><br><p>Right next to Kabukicho is Golden Gai, a maze of six narrow alleys with many dozens of tiny bars. The area developed after World War II and over the years was a meeting place for writers and artists. On the west side of Shinjuku Station, about a ten-minute walk from Golden Gai, is Omoide Yokocho (&#8220;Memory Lane&#8221;), a crowded alley with about sixty stalls and small restaurants, many of them serving yakitori (chicken skewers grilled over charcoal). It too began as a black market in the late 1940s.<\/p><br><br><p>The tastiest way to get to know the area is on a three-hour food tour in a small group with a local English-speaking guide. On the tour you taste 13 dishes at 4 different places: a stall, an izakaya, a traditional restaurant and a gastro bar, and two drinks are included. The route passes through Omoide Yokocho and Kabukicho. There are lunchtime and evening tours.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-shinjuku-food-tour-13-dishes-and-4-eateries-t654876\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and bookings for a food tour in Shinjuku.<\/a><\/p><br><br><p>Prefer an evening of bars? Join a tour with a local guide to three small bars and izakayas in Omoide Yokocho and Kabukicho. Note that food and drinks aren&#8217;t included in the tour and are paid for in cash on the spot. The tour lasts 3 hours and is open to participants over 20.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/shinjuku-local-bar-izakaya-crawl-t535299\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and bookings for a bar and izakaya tour in Shinjuku.<\/a><\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sumo in Ryogoku<\/h3><br><br><p>Sumo is one of the symbols of Japanese culture, and Tokyo is its home. The Ryogoku neighborhood is home to the Ryogoku Kokugikan sumo hall, which hosts three of the year&#8217;s six grand sumo tournaments: in January, May and September. Each tournament lasts 15 days, from Sunday to Sunday. If your trip falls during one of them, it&#8217;s worth buying tickets in advance, but you can also buy them on site on the day of the competition.<\/p><br><br><p>The rest of the year, the way to see real sumo is a morning practice at one of the sumo stables (heya, where sumo wrestlers live and train). Most sumo stables are in Ryogoku, and visits are usually made on an organized tour.\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>On a three-hour tour you&#8217;ll watch real sumo, not a show, with explanations from a former sumo journalist, and take a souvenir photo. After the practice you continue on a short walking tour of the Ryogoku area. Note that you sit on the floor while watching, you must keep quiet, and flash photography is not allowed.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-sumo-morning-practice-tour-with-expert-reporter-t810287\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here for details and bookings for a sumo practice viewing tour.<\/a><\/p><br><br><p>Prefer a lighter experience?\u00a0<\/p><br><br><p>At a 75-minute sumo show in Shibuya you&#8217;ll watch demonstrations and bouts by sumo wrestlers, with an English-speaking host who explains the rituals and the history of the sport. At the end of the show you can take photos with the wrestlers, and a few audience members are even chosen by lottery to take on a wrestler in the ring! It&#8217;s a show and not a real competition, but it&#8217;s a great way to get to know sumo.<\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/tokyo-l193\/tokyo-shibuya-sumo-show-experience-with-chanko-photo-t1299373\/?partner_id=9ZV2QIA&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\">Click here to book tickets for a sumo show in Shibuya.<\/a><\/p><br><br><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea (Tokyo Disney Resort)<\/h3><br><br><p>If you&#8217;re traveling with kids, or just love theme parks, it&#8217;s worth setting aside a day for one of the two Disney parks near Tokyo: Tokyo Disneyland or Tokyo DisneySea, which opened in 2001. In 2024 DisneySea opened a new area, Fantasy Springs, with rides inspired by Disney films such as &#8220;Frozen&#8221;. To get on the rides in this area you need a Standby Pass from the park&#8217;s official app.<\/p><br><br><p>Both parks are in Urayasu in Chiba Prefecture, right next to Tokyo. You get there by train to Maihama station, about a quarter of an hour from Tokyo Station. From the station it&#8217;s about a five-minute walk to Disneyland, and for DisneySea you continue on the resort&#8217;s own train, the Disney Resort Line. You&#8217;ll find more tips for visiting the parks in our article <a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/%d7%98%d7%95%d7%a7%d7%99%d7%95-%d7%a2%d7%9d-%d7%99%d7%9c%d7%93%d7%99%d7%9d\/\">Tokyo with Kids<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.klook.com\/activity\/695-tokyo-disney-resort-1-day-pass-tokyo\/?aid=97515\">Click here to buy tickets for Disneyland or DisneySea.\u00a0<\/a><\/p><br><br><p>We wish you a wonderful trip to Tokyo, and invite you to tell us in the comments about your experiences and the attractions you loved most!<\/p><br><br><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Articles on the Site for Travelers to Tokyo<\/h4><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/en\/tokyo-travel-guide\/\">Tokyo: The 2026 Travel Guide: Essential Information and Top Attractions<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/en\/?p=54041\">Recommended Hotels in Tokyo: Where to Stay in Tokyo<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/%d7%98%d7%95%d7%a7%d7%99%d7%95-%d7%a2%d7%9d-%d7%99%d7%9c%d7%93%d7%99%d7%9d\/\">Tokyo with Kids<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/%d7%98%d7%95%d7%a7%d7%99%d7%95-%d7%9e%d7%a1%d7%9c%d7%95%d7%9c-%d7%98%d7%99%d7%95%d7%9c-%d7%a9%d7%9c-%d7%97%d7%9e%d7%99%d7%a9%d7%94-%d7%99%d7%9e%d7%99%d7%9d\/\">Tokyo: A Five-Day Itinerary<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/%d7%94%d7%90%d7%a7%d7%95%d7%a0%d7%94-%d7%98%d7%99%d7%95%d7%9c-%d7%99%d7%95%d7%9d-%d7%9e%d7%98%d7%95%d7%a7%d7%99%d7%95\/\">Hakone: A Day Trip from Tokyo<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/mount-fuji-view-hotels\/\">Mount Fuji: Hotels with a View of the Mountain<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/yokohama-travel-guide\/\">Yokohama: The Complete Guide<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/en\/japan-itinerary-osaka-kyoto-tokyo\/\">Japan Itinerary: Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/en\/?p=54011\">How to Plan a Holiday in Japan in 2026<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/en\/japan-travel-apps\/\">Apps for a Trip to Japan<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/%d7%a2%d7%9c%d7%95%d7%99%d7%95%d7%aa-%d7%98%d7%99%d7%95%d7%9c-%d7%91%d7%99%d7%a4%d7%9f-%d7%95%d7%9e%d7%98%d7%91%d7%a2-%d7%9e%d7%a7%d7%95%d7%9e%d7%99\/\">Trip Costs in Japan and the Local Currency<\/a><\/p><br><br><p><a href=\"https:\/\/check-in-out.com\/%d7%a9%d7%90%d7%9c%d7%95%d7%aa-%d7%a0%d7%a4%d7%95%d7%a6%d7%95%d7%aa-%d7%9c%d7%9e%d7%98%d7%99%d7%99%d7%9c%d7%99%d7%9d-%d7%9c%d7%99%d7%a4%d7%9f\/\">FAQ for Travelers to Japan<\/a><\/p><br>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tokyo is a city like no other, with skyscrapers and bustling crossings alongside ancient temples, peaceful gardens and museums that look as if they&#8217;ve arrived from the future, anime neighborhoods and street food markets.
