IMMERSE YOURSELF IN Old and New Japan Start Your Journey in Tokyo and Osaka

Tokyo and Osaka are both very big cities and have countless tourist attractions including a large number of shops, museums, parks, temples, shrines, skyscrapers and so on. Both are also home to amazing amusement parks Tokyo Disney Resort (it’s actually located in Chiba Prefecture though..) and Universal Studios Japan. In comparison, Tokyo is much bigger and offers more number of tourist attractions such as Tokyo Tower, Asakusa Sensoji, Shibuya Crossing and more. Also there are many tourist sites nearby such as Yokohama and Kamakura which are perfect for day trips. Osaka offers a great number of tourist attractions, too, including Dotonbori neon lights, Osaka Castle and Kaiyukan Aquarium, but the scale is just smaller than in Tokyo. However, Osaka can be a great hub to travel to the area around such as Kyoto, Nara and Hiroshima that are counted as the greatest cities in Japan.

Tokyo

As Japan’s capital and the world’s most populous metropolis, Tokyo offers tradition and innovation, and unlimited opportunities to eat, shop and explore
Tokyo is located on Tokyo Bay in the Kanto region of Honshu, Japan’s largest island. The closest airport is Haneda officially known as Tokyo International Airport. Tokyo is known for its fashion and shopping, from the trendy shopping districts of Harajuku and Shibuya, to the luxury flagships of Ginza.

Shinjuku is the thriving business district; a mix of gleaming skyscrapers and atmospheric back streets with tiny bars. Asakusa is the heart of Tokyo’s downtown, with ancient temples and traditional stores. Tokyo is a foodie paradise with more Michelin-starred restaurants than any other city in the world, along with hundreds of cheap and delicious ramen shops.

Osaka

Osaka (大阪, Ōsaka) is Japan’s second largest metropolitan area after Tokyo. It has been the economic powerhouse of the Kansai Region for many centuries. Osaka was formerly known as Naniwa. Before the Nara Period, when the capital used to be moved with the reign of each new emperor, Naniwa was once Japan’s capital city, the first one ever known.

In the 16th century, Toyotomi Hideyoshi chose Osaka as the location for his castle, and the city may have become Japan’s political capital if Tokugawa Ieyasu had not terminated the Toyotomi lineage after Hideyoshi’s death and moved his government to distant Edo (Tokyo).
