Experience 24 hours in Tokyo, Japan

Tokyo has been on the top of everyone’s travel list. But what exactly can you do there? Here are some things that you absolutely have to do on your first visit to the dynamic city!

Eat the freshest sushi in town at Toyosu Fish Market

Tokyo is famous for its superb sushi, and one of the best places to get your hands on some is the Toyosu Fish Market. In 2018, the world-famous Tsukiji Fish Market relocated to Toyosu, and the latter is now the place to enjoy the renowned daily tuna auction. You can still visit Tsukiji, though, where the historic outer market’s food stalls and restaurants remain in business.

Roar at an authentic sumo wrestling match

Head on over to Ryōgoku Kokugikan, an indoor sumo stadium and get yourself a ticket to catch an actual sumo match! You would think there is nothing much to well-built man pushing each other around, but it is actually pretty exciting!

And if you really want to experience the whole package – the roaring crowd, the energised atmosphere, and possibly the throwing of cushions after a particularly exciting match – then Friday and Saturday evenings would be the best bet for you.

Experience the High-Tech Entertainment at Robot Restaurant

Take in old-fashioned Yanaka Ginza Shitamachi

Historically, the shitamachi (low city) was where the less affluent worked and lived. Today, few places remain in Tokyo where you can experience the old world, but with its ramshackle, frozen-in-time atmosphere, Yanaka Ginza shopping district is one of them. The Yuyake Dandan staircase is a good place to snap a few photos to capture the vibes. There’s also a sizeable population of adorable stray cats in the area.

Visit TeamLab Borderless Digital Art Museum

The digital art museum TeamLab Borderless is one of the most Instagrammable things to do in Tokyo. But this unusual interactive museum is well worth visiting even if you are not planning to take the perfect photo.

There is no map as the discovery is part of the fun, you wander down dark corridors and choose doors at random to explore the immersive displays that use lights and projections in creative ways.
