  • Get info about things to do, where to stay, and the best food to eat on your visit to Tokyo, Japan. Here's the guide: migrationology.com/tokyo-trav...
    Tokyo (東京), Japan, is one of the world's greatest cities, and there's so much to do and see when you visit. From temples and shrines, to gardens and museums, you'll never run out of attractions. Out of all the things you could do, I've chosen a top 25 list for this awesome city (and just so you know food is my first choice in Tokyo)!
    1. Ameya-Yokochō (アメヤ横丁) - A giant open air market that offers clothes, cosmetics, food, and restaurants and bars.
    2. Meiji Shrine (明治神宮) - This Shinto shrine, surrounded by beautiful forest, is extremely significant.
    3. Ryogoku Kokugikan (両国国技館) - Even if it's not fight season, you can go to the free sumo museum and eat sumo chankonabe.
    4. Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden (新宿御苑) - The garden is a beautiful attraction in Tokyo, with French gardens, Japanese gardens, and a green house.
    5. Ginza (銀座) / Yurakucho (有楽町) - Ginza is a great area of town for upscale shopping and dining, while Yurakucho is famous for Izakaya bars and restaurants under the railroad track.
    6. Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building (東京都庁舎) - There are a lot of things to do in Tokyo where you have to pay, but here, you can go to the 45th floor for free.
    7. Tsukiji Market (築地市場) - One of the most famous attractions in all of Tokyo is the Tsukiji Market (築地市場), the biggest seafood market in the world.
    8. Shibuya (渋谷区) - With the busiest intersection in the world, Shibuya (渋谷区) is also home to shopping and restaurant.
    9. Sumida River (隅田川) - At Tokyo's Sumida River, you can either just walk around the park and enjoy the riverside views, or you can take the Tokyo Cruise in a boat.
    10. Tokyo Imperial Palace (皇居) - This is the home of the emperor of Japan. To enter the grounds, you have to make a tour booking on the official website
    11. Ueno Park (上野公園), Tokyo National Museum (東京国立博物館) - Ueno Park is a huge public park in Tokyo with shrines, gardens and a number of museums.
    12. Tokyo Skytree (東京スカイツリー) - They call it Tokyo's biggest attractions. It's a huge communications tower with various viewing decks and galleries.
    13. Harajuku (原宿), Takeshita Street (竹下通り) - Famous for its street market and cosplay that takes place, this is a place in the city to see and be seen.
    14. Senso-ji (金龍山浅草寺) - Visiting this temple is one of the top things to do in Tokyo, frequented by both tourists and religious pilgrims. It's the oldest temple in Tokyo.
    15. Edo-Tokyo Museum (江戸東京博物館) - It looks a little like a UFO, but it's one of Tokyo's main museums, that aims to preserve the history of the city.
    16. Fine Dining - Let's just face it, Tokyo is one of the best cities in the world for high class dining - atmosphere, presentation, food, it's all just stunning!
    17. Akihabara Electric Town (秋葉原電気街) - If you love electronics and gaming, you're going to love the area of Akihabara. You'll also find those infamous maid cafes here.
    18. Tokyo Stock Exchange (東京証券取引所) - Another free attraction in Tokyo is to be a guest at the stock exchange where you can see the Japanese Nikkei being traded.
    19. Roppongi (六本木) - Home to the Mori Art Museum and a hotspot for nightlife in the city, Roppongi is an exciting area of town.
    20. Odaiba (お台場) - This area of Tokyo is full of things to do like Legoland, and Palette Town, an indoor amusement park. It's also known as Tokyo's entertainment island.
    21. Yoyogi Park (代々木公園) - Located next to Meiji Shrine, and just a short distance from Harajuku and Shinjuku, this park is popular for exercise and dance.
    22. Nezu (根津), Yanaka (谷中 (台東区) - Tokyo is a truly modern city, but there are a couple places like Nezu and Yanaka that have held strong to their traditional and cultural roots.
    23. Onsen (温泉) - You've got to strip down naked before you can enter a Japanese public bath.
    24. Mount Takao (高尾山) - Just 50 km from central Tokyo, this mountain is popular for climbing and is a sacred religious mountains. Makes a good day trip from Tokyo.
    25. Food - Finally, food is the reason I visited Japan, and I think eating is by all means one of the best things to do in Tokyo. Food is everywhere, and not only does it taste amazing, but the care that goes into Japanese cuisine is incredible.
    Thank you very much for watching this video that includes some of the best things to do in Tokyo. I hope it will give you inspiration to visit and eat through this amazing city.

    I live in the U.S. and I've never been out of the country. I think this is the first place I'll go to. It seems very diverse in everything. It's so fascinating.

      Not a place for "first time out of the womb" travel experience. Try Mexico, Canada or Europe first - much more foreigner friendly than Japan.

      *****
      I didn;t say the people don't like foreigners (although I also wouldn't categorize the Japanese as overtly American loving people either. They tollerate us a visitors). I said it isn't foreigner friendly - as in you wont find them catering to Western Language and customs as they do in Mexico, Canada or Europe - foreigner friendly countries where it might benefit a first time traveler to be able to spend more of their time on vacation vacationing, rather than trying to find someone who is willing to speak English to you and give you directions. Japan is a great place to travel if you're experienced with traveling, know a little about the language, or have friends that can take you who do speak the language. The alternative would be to travel to Japan on a guided tour.
      I have traveled to Japan six times, was previously married to a Japanese citizen - speak the language like a 5 year old child and can read and write enough to recognize the characters on the local subway trains. Most of my trips were for 30 plus days at a time. I owned a business here in the US that did business with Japan explicitly.

      ***** lol. I thought it was only me. I first time was not that irritating but by the time the film ended I wanted to smash the beverage I was drinking into the side of my head. I'm sure he had that expression in the public bath house a couple times too. Great looking food though, maybe next time some music, club life, girls, sports?

    @PamelaProPeace Před 9 lety +48

    Somebody takes the time and effort to make a wonderful, helpful and fun video to share with complete strangers ... and instead of appreciation and thanks there are those who decide to write a critique of the presenter's style! Please ignore these people Mark. Sadly they probably have had bad experiences in their lives that has drained the joy from them. Let's hope they find that inner happiness that you so clearly have!
    I've been to Japan once and loved it so much that I am going back for another visit and I plan to check out about 23 of your "things to do" - so a very big thank you from me
    p.s. I guess the criticisers' Mums never taught them the rule "if you have nothing NICE to say, say NOTHING"! :)

    • @phylliskaylarson1649

    When you visit Tokyo, you'll have infinite possibilities of things to do, see, and eat. But I've narrowed it down to the top 25 in this brand new video (and don't worry, you'll see lots of #food in here too).
    "25 Things To Do in #Tokyo , Japan (Watch This Before You Go)"
    Press play to watch it now! I would also really be grateful if you would "share" this video as well. Thank you in advance!

Though I live in Tokyo myself, I've been given a project with the Tokyo Tourism Bureau and Kanto Tourism Agency to look into revamping guides into Tokyo and the surrounds. I draw inspiration from many content creators and draw upon them for some popular and hidden gems and watching your small snippet of your experiences gives me a few ideas to storyboard and then create the official guides. Thank you so much and I hope you remain safe during this climate!

      +OllyWazHere It is his trademark food-orgasm face. He does this every time he eats something. It is extremely disturbing to watch. I wished he would just describe what the food tasted like rather than pulling that same creep-face every time. Makes it look acted. Apart from that this is a pretty useful video.

    I watched this video randomly in HS like 7 years ago and I'm not sure why but I kept coming back to it. Just visited Japan 6 months ago and this video was a great help when planning the Tokyo portion of my trip. Mount Takao and the Nezu Shrine were two of my favorite locations I otherwise might've missed without this video! Excited to possibly go back in the future and catch a sumo match!

    I can't believe all the hateful comments on this and other videos by Mark. One unfortunate thing about the internet are all the anonymous keyboard trolls that have nothing better to do with their lives than post mean spirited comments. I see nothing wrong at all with Mike's facial expressions when eating, and his happy smile and demeanor is a welcome change from all the bad things that happen in the world.. In fact it brings a smile to my face seeing his expressions because it's almost like I can sense how delicious the food is. A lot better than just describing what makes a food taste great.

    I appreciated this video and it's content. I had been recommended a number of places mentioned here beforehand, but did, in fact, get a couple of important recommendations here that I will definitely visit on my upcoming trip to the city.
    But at the same time, I felt like I was looking at a poorly optimized webpage or something in video format: this dude must have said the word "Tokyo" thirty times, or more! Moreover, he continuously made this upsetting and strange face whenever he ate a bite of food. The content is great; the presentation is bizarre. Clean it up a bit, and then you'll have a really excellent video!
