Tokyo, a very large city with lots to see

Although it may seem like a big mess in the middle of the big city of Tokyo, everything is very organized. All exits of the Underground are properly marked, and although we miss someone will detect our forgetfulness and kindly tell us how the right direction again.

Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is great for the number of people who live there, more than 26 million people with dozens of neighborhoods that make up about small town. The most important are Shibuya and Shinjuku.

The Shibuya district of Tokyo’s shopping and leisure largest and most important of the city. Well we can lose between people with and typical pedestrian crossings near the metro of Hachiko. Some thousands of television screens and countless large luminous classic flanking this junction. If we get a better view of the area, so we’ll just go to the second floor of Starbucks Shibuya Tsutaya.

Shinjuku district is the largest number of skyscrapers and the busiest. Despite his great hustle we can also find peace and tranquility that characterize the Japanese culture. So we’ll just go up the tempo of Jugan-ji, in the Nakano station or at the intersection of Chuo Dori Dori and square.
