Futuristic vibes
Tokyo is not a city with just one type of experience. You can start with a quiet morning at a temple, move into a hypermodern shopping district, try street food, catch a skyline at sunset and end the evening in a district that feels completely different again.
Culture & tradition
Visit the historic temples of Asakusa. Experience the traditional atmosphere, a strong contrast with the intense rhythm of the major shopping districts and the modern side of the city.
City vibes
Shibuya, Shinjuku, Asakusa and Akihabara are well-known districts in Tokyo. You often see these names on trains, metro lines or signs. Tokyo is known worldwide as a city that is constantly moving, with big crossings, neon lights, rooftop views and an energetic metropolitan feel.
Pop culture
Its shopping centers and stores are strongly connected to Japanese pop culture: anime, manga and gaming. For many students, that is a major reason to visit Japan. It is a unique mix of tradition and futuristic city life.
Green escapes
Between the busy districts, there are also parks and quiet places to slow down. A chance to relax with friends and enjoy viewpoints, parks and temples across the city.
Tokyo food
From quick snacks to ramen, sushi and specialized food concepts. Tokyo can feel like a full food trip on its own.
