Popular Destinations in Tokyo

Looking for activities once your private jet arrives in Tokyo? Tokyo is a popular travel destination and visitors can find a wide range of attraction spots here, including:

Ginza

Ginza

Ginza: One of the world’s most luxurious shopping centers, Ginza is Tokyo’s most popular upscale shopping area. Ginza is to Tokyo what Fifth Avenue is to New York. Home to the serious shoppers, Tokyo features designer retailers including Cartier and Chanel. Department stores Hankya and Matsuya are unique to the Tokyo scene, and are favorites among those looking for a wide selection in Ginza.

National Museum of Nature and Science: Because this museum is so close to the Ueno Zoo and the Tokyo National Museum, visitors often make it a whole day affair. Galleries from not only Japan but the world can be viewed and explored here. Topic highlights include ecosystems, animals, and Japanese architecture.

Imperial Palace: The Imperial Palace is a spot not to be missed. The attraction is in no way lacking in terms of interest; in fact, visitation and tours are given all year round. Still, seldom will there be a crowd. This is because crowd control is of utmost importance at the Imperial Palace. Officials monitor the number of ticket requests and limit visitors to a manageable level. East garden visitation is all day and year round, which is where picnics and relaxation abound. Although the tours are informative, they are only given in Japanese, so English speakers may want to reference the pamphlets and audio guides provided.

Tokyo Sea Life Park: Appealing to both experts and amateurs, this park, located across from Disneyland, Tokyo, offers marine life from the Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, and the Caribbean Sea. Possibly the most popular area of the park is the penguin exhibit.

Tokyo Tower

Tokyo Tower

Tokyo Tower: At 333m high, the world’s tallest steel tower is virtually a copy of the Eiffel Tower in France – except that this tower is 13m higher. Not only a tourist lookout, this building serves as a television and radio broadcasting structure. The deck on the second level (there are two observation decks – one at 250m and one a bit lower at 150m), offers views of the sprawling nature of Tokyo and Mount Fuji.

Odaiba: A visit to Odaiba is like taking a glimpse into the future. This artificial island was initially built as a defense against intruders in the 1850s. It expanded into a seaport district in the 20th century, and now offers a host of activities year round. The neighborhood is a hub of architecture, eateries, and entertainment. Nighttime offers glittering skylines, while the daylight hours invite visitors to gaze upon waterside views or splurge at the abundant shopping malls.
