Sakura
Interestingly, many travelers go to Japan to admire such a wonderful tree as the sakura. It blooms with large pink flowers in different regions at different times, as the blooming of sakura depends on both geographical location and weather. In Tokyo, it happens approximately on March 25-27 and lasts about two weeks. In Japan, they even celebrate the cherry blossom festival. Therefore, to not miss this event, one should come to Tokyo in early spring.
Ghibli Museum
For anime fans, who usually spend their free time on websites, a whole museum has been created in Tokyo dedicated to one of the animation studios, whose animator was the renowned Hayao Miyazaki. Fans can see there their favorite characters from manga, comics, and anime, which are presented in abundance. However, getting into this museum is not so easy; you need to buy tickets 2-3 days in advance.
Tokyo National Museum
This museum holds immense cultural and historical value, presenting visitors with over a hundred thousand museum exhibits. These include not only paintings and statues, but also a huge number of armor, weapons, and interior items from various eras.
The Little Prince Museum
One of the unusual places for a tourist to visit is the Little Prince Museum. There you can learn about the history of the creation of the eponymous work, about the author, becoming acquainted with his personal letters and photographs, and also admire a French town in miniature.
Skyscrapers
Those wishing to view Tokyo from a bird's-eye perspective, or maybe even higher, are given that opportunity. There are an incredible number of skyscrapers in Tokyo, and some of them have observation decks. For more impressive and striking photos, you should choose skyscrapers in the center of Tokyo. There are an immense number of them.
Temples
For those who like to visit religious buildings, Tokyo also offers such an opportunity. Many temples that will leave you speechless are located in the capital of Japan. One of them is the Kantei-byo Temple, which began its existence in 1862. But due to tragic circumstances – earthquakes, fires, attacks during World War II – the temple underwent multiple restorations. The last one ended in 2000, and today this religious building welcomes tourists again.
Tokyo even houses an entire temple complex called 'Silver Forest'. Its territory contains 103 buildings, all surrounded by wonderful nature. Nine structures of the complex are included in the list of national treasures of Japan. Also located on the temple complex grounds are the world-famous three monkey figures: 'see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil'.
Mount Fuji
No tourist leaves Japan without admiring the highest mountain of the Land of the Rising Sun. If the mountain is not surrounded by clouds, it can be clearly seen from Tokyo. For those wishing to climb Mount Fuji, ascents are organized (mainly at the end of summer). The five lakes of Mount Fuji, located north of the mountain, are preferred for water sports, visiting amusement parks, and ice caves.
