Introduction
Tokyo, the capital city of Japan, is one of the most treasured urban areas on the planet. Synonymous with Japanese high-tech industry, neon lights, colour, culture, bustle and stunning scenery, Tokyo is not only a delightful place to visit but a great place to do business. Many blue chip companies have offices in Tokyo, a city that is the commercial and cultural centre of Japan.
Arts and Events
For decades Tokyo was visited mainly by business people connected with Japan's booming electronics and car manufacturing industries. Today, more and more people are coming to this huge, exciting megalopolis in order to enjoy its vast array of attractions and to experience a little of the almost 'other-worldly' culture that Japan offers visitors from overseas. Tokyo's infinite charms include temples, palaces and gorgeous, intricate gardens as well as a nightlife second to none. As for shopping, Tokyo is world famous for its boundless variety of shops and stores. Visitors in spring can enjoy the special bonus of seeing the fabulous cherry blossoms that attract vast crowds to the city parks. But a trip to Tokyo, at any time, is guaranteed to be a profoundly interesting and enjoyable experience.
