Planning notes for Tokyo
Tokyo, originally known as Edo, serves as the seat of the Japanese government and the Imperial family. Its historical heritage is anchored in the Edo period (1603–1868), a time when the city developed as a center for the Tokugawa shogunate. The Imperial Palace, situated on the former site of Edo Castle, remains a central landmark characterized by stone walls, moats, and the Nijubashi Bridge. The city’s architecture reflects a transition from traditional wooden structures to modern engineering. Senso-ji.

- Carry a small bag for your trash throughout the day, as public waste bins are rare in Tokyo's streets and stations.
