Author : nancy eben
Tokyo is Japan’s capital city and without any doubts also it’s largest as well as most attractive. Though it is actually one among the nations 47 prefectures, it is preferably called a metropolis rather than a prefecture. The metropolis consists of city wards, cities, towns and villages apart from quite a few small Pacific Islands which lie to the south of Japan’s main island Honshu. Almost one third of the metropolis area is made up of the 23 city wards which form the center of Tokyo. Tokyo was originally known as Edo which was to become the country’s political center in 1603. It started growing into becoming one of the world’s most populous cities and renamed Tokyo meaning “Eastern Capital”. It was also at this time with the Meiji Restoration in 1868 the emperor and capital shifted to Edo (Tokyo).
The large entertainment, business and shopping area are a major attraction for most people, travelers and visitors. Known as Shinjuku and situated around Shinjuku Station it is one among the 23 wards of the metropolis. One can make advance room reservations in hotels in Tokyo which are today at par with the best in the world. This allows visitors and tourists an opportunity to experience the sights and attractions of this fabulous city without any hassles. One of the main buildings in the metropolis is the 243 meter tall twin towers. The twin towers and its surrounding buildings contain the offices and the assembly hall of the Tokyo government. One can view sights from the towers which house observatories on the 45th floor.
Shinjuku is known as the Skyscraper district of the metropolis. Some Tokyo luxury hotels also come under the category of skyscrapers. The prominent ones are the ‘Keio Plaza’, ‘Hilton’, ‘Century Hyatt’ and ‘Park Hyatt’.

At the time of the cherry blossom season which is from late March to late April and the Chrysanthemum Exhibition during the first half of November there are no closure days.
There are capsule hotels in Tokyo in which the guest is given an area of around three feet by three feet by six feet. The amenities provided to the guests include a TV and a light hanging from the ceiling. The capsule rooms have just enough space to sleep in and maybe sit up. There is but a little cloth curtain that separates one capsule from the other capsules above, below and all around.
