Hello Tokyo

An insider's guide to the hotspots, culture, etiquette, street style and food of Japan's vibrant capital.

This bright, bold city guide contains everything you need to know to fully embrace all Tokyo has to offer and explore its urban hubs. From what to do and where to stay to hidden gems and essential eating spots, Tokyo-born Makiko Sano clues you in on the city’s must-see sights and experiences. She brings you the real, authentic Tokyo, beyond the tourist traps and basic sightseeing lists.

The book opens with a Visiting Tokyo chapter where you will find out how to greet locals, deal with currency, dress for the weather, get around the city and use public transport – invaluable local knowledge that you’ll not find in other travel guides. The book then discusses 14 urban hubs, specializing on: Shinjuku, the Electrifying Entertainment District; Shibuya, the Trendsetting Youth Hub; Ginza, the Gleaming Luxury District; Asakusa, the Living Time Capsule; Harajuku, Kawaii Capital and Fashion Playground; Ikebukuro, the Vibrant Entertainment District. Each hub covers Places to Stay, Places to Eat, Places to Visit, Cultural Spots, Hidden Gems and Local Tips.

And because Tokyo isn't just about seeing but doing, there's an Experience Tokyo section, on where to go for hands-on workshops, craftmaking and cooking classes, tea ceremeonies and karaoke.
