Unique Features of Tokyo That Will Fascinate You

The most innovative, the most impressive, the safest… Eccentric, exotic, alien… Synonymous with flawlessness, perfectionism and order… Home to dynamic neon lights and billboards, divine temples and amazing food… Tokyo is impossible to describe in a hurry and to experiences in a short time.

The complex megalopolis, home to over 37 million people, entices with the coexistence of tradition and the ultra-modern and is almost always on the travel enthusiast's bucket list.

But what exactly is the magic of Tokyo? Find out where to start to experience it in its full glory:

The perfect "chaos" at the Shibuya intersection

Traffic lights flash red for vehicles in all directions and thousands of people flood the Shibuya intersection in sync, briefly turning it into a saturated pedestrian zone. Like a spider's web, pedestrians' paths cross and they quickly diverge, only to leave the streets for cars again as soon as the green light goes out.

Despite the fact that it is a super busy intersection with a diagonal pedestrian crossing, one can only admire the focus and expediency of the passers-by.

The staggering height of the Tokyo Skytree

Tokyo Skytree is not only the tallest building in Japan, but also the tallest tower in the world. Reaching a height of 634 meters, it offers an unrivaled 360-degree panoramic view of the city. Adrenaline junkies have the opportunity to awaken the feeling of "floating" while stepping on a glass floor, which can also be enjoyed in over 300 shops and restaurants, an aquarium and a planetarium.

The innovative spirit of Akihabara

Step into the mecca of electronics, high-tech, and otaku subculture called Akihabara. It is an area of intense energy that is described as a paradise for technology "addicts", anime and manga fans and fans of Japanese pop culture.

Here you will find countless shops for the latest gadgets, as well as anime and manga comics and figures. You will also be surprised by street performers, cosplay enthusiasts, themed cafes and places dedicated to gatherings and competitions for gamers.

Akihabara fuses technology and creativity, where the boundaries of what is possible are constantly being pushed. The vision followed by the innovative IQOS devices is similar.

IQOS allows its users, who are part of the IQOS CLUB loyalty platform, to unlock numerous benefits and collect points through it. Through the IQOS Together X platform, the three IQOS users from our country with the most status points collected by September 1, 2024, will go on an exciting Together X experience in Tokyo. One of the last opportunities to collect additional points is the "Little Tokyo" event at Casa Bar on 31.08, starting at 20:00, which is intended for IQOS users who are part of the IQOS CLUB. At Casa, the magic of Tokyo will come alive through Japanese food, a Japanese-style atmosphere, impressive billboards and signs, as well as music that alludes to the local culture.

The futurism of Odaiba

Odaiba is a man-made island that offers endless entertainment, mesmerizing views, amazing architecture and shopping. It is connected to central Tokyo by the colorful "Rainbow Bridge", which is stunningly spectacular at night.

Among the most striking buildings is the Fuji Television Building, designed by the well-known architect Kenzo Tange. Tourists also love to take pictures with the replica of the Statue of Liberty.

Tokyo definitely offers opportunities for adventures with the "wow" factor that you will remember for a lifetime.
