My Trip

A subway-linked tour through the classic core of eastern Tokyo. Start at Senso-ji in the morning, pass through Ueno Park, and end with the evening lights of Tokyo Station's Marunouchi facade. Transfers are kept to a minimum so first-timers can soak up both old-world charm and modern cityscapes in one balanced day.
