Attractions and Tips

Places like the Meiji Shrine, the Sensoji Temple and the Imperial Palace all offer a look into the past of Tokyo. Tour these areas and learn more about past rulers, religious practices and architecture. For a completely different look at the area, take time to see the Tsukiji Market. This fish market offers fresh seafood and if you get there early enough, you might be able to catch the fish auctions in the morning. Sushi lovers should consider checking the different stalls and restaurants to enjoy the local cuisine. Shoppers will not want to miss a trip to Ginza, an upscale shopping experience.

While September through November offers great views of the foliage as well as comfortable temperatures, most people choose to visit in the summer. Unfortunately, the summertime means high temperatures coupled with high humidity. Winters are cold but not cold enough to prevent visitors from enjoying outside activities. Seasonal differences lead to different experiences depending on visit timing.
