Visiting Tokyo for the first time can feel like visiting another planet. Tokyo is very different from Western capitals, but what really sets it apart are its people. With a growing population of over 12 million within 1,300 square kilometres, Tokyo is Japan’s largest and most densely populated city; a bustling, state-of-the-art marketplace full of energy, humanity and astonishing contrasts.

Tokyo has two airports: The New Tokyo International Airport (commonly known as Narita Airport), located 60 km outside of central Tokyo, while the domestic Haneda Airport is more centrally located.
