Introduction to Tokyo

Tokyo enjoys a high reputation. On the earth, this city has the densest population, the fastest pace of life and the most polite citizens. It has the most Michelin-starred restaurants and the safest streets, and has regained the title of "the most expensive city". However, in many ways, this city is the most disorderly and lacks overall planning, which is quite different from Paris, Rome or new york. The builders in Tokyo seem determined to make every building stand out from the crowd, which is an irony for a city famous for observing rules and order. The relaxed planning method and the culture of "tearing down and rebuilding" make things here always look so interesting.

Of course, from the perspective of the whole society, obeying the rules still plays a leading role, which means that the population crowded here is enough to make other cities chaotic and has not led to crime or violence. You can rest assured that you have cash on you, because you know that robbery in Tokyo is almost unheard of. Even if you lose your wallet or wallet, someone is likely to catch up with you and return it. This city can give you such a sense of security.

The first time you set foot in a large commercial center in Ginza, Roppongi, Shibuya or Shinjuku, your eyes will open wide and irresistible. Eyes are full of shiny signs and advertisements; The huge LCD screen pours noise into your ears. But often only a few steps away from this chaos, you will find a tasteful cultural oasis and a quiet Zen. Go to Shinjuku, where temples and department stores are neighbors of kabukicho; Roppongi's luxury hotels, strip clubs and art museums are crowded together; In Harajuku, the largest shrine in the city is only a few blocks away from the latest fashion shop.

Tokyo is good at mixing, which is only part of the fun. It may take you decades to get to know the city, but you will like it the first time you arrive.
