▼Displayed Content

Tokyo, a city where tradition and innovation intersect and new styles are constantly being created, promising diverse delights. The City of Tokyo and the Tokyo Convention & Visitors Bureau have combined forces to gather all the delights, both old and new, of each area of Tokyo, the city at the heart of Japan, and summarise them in one guidebook! The pages are crammed with photographs that capture the character of each area of Tokyo, as well as handy maps. The design is simple and easy to read. The areas, facilities and products featured are selected on the basis of careful research into the kind of information that visitors want. The app is packed with useful information for both groups and individuals.
