So what’s to see? Despite its hyper-modern reputation it is the old temples which many head for first. The Imperial Palace has wonderful gardens which house the temple of Asakusa. The Meiji Shrine in Harajuku is also well worth a visit.
If you want to take in the whole shebang and get a glimpse of Mount Fuji (which must be the most perfect and iconic volcano in the world) go to the top of the Tokyo tower or better still go to the top of the Metropolitan Government Building.
