In Tokyo, there are three tournaments open to the public held every year in the Kokugikan sumo stadium found in the district of Ryogoku.\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>4.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Bite into the freshest catch of the day in Tsukiji Market <\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-8ad52f1 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8ad52f1\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-ee481ff\" data-id=\"ee481ff\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9bfb91f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9bfb91f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static1.squarespace.com\/static\/5759c27e2b8dde3365a2ca6e\/t\/57da91fe893fc0962ff12327\/1473942022657\/\" \/><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a9f668a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a9f668a\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-644eb2e\" data-id=\"644eb2e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7352ad7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7352ad7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Visiting the world\u2019s largest fish market located in Tokyo has become a bucket list item for most tourists for a good reason. After watching the rush of vendors and the fish auction in the early morning, you get to sit down in one of the sushi counters and eat the catch of the day!

When these delicate pink flowers bloom, it signals the beginning of spring. Cherry blossoms, or sakura, play an integral part in Japanese culture. The short blooming period is celebrated through viewing parties called hanami festival. Ueno Park in Tokyo is the prime venue for hanami parties when people enjoy picnics, sing songs and drink beer under a canopy of cherry blossoms.\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>6.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Go for a pub crawl like no other in the Golden Gai <\/strong><\/p><p>Where can you go for a nightcap and rub shoulders with the locals? At Golden Gai in Shinjuku district, you can literally do both. The cramped quarters of this historic neighborhood contain a warren of some 200 watering holes. Hole is the apt word to use as each bar typically offers up to 8 seats. Definitely not for the claustrophobic Westerner, bars in the Golden Gai attract interesting local characters, from celebrities to artists. Though most joints use minimal English, some do cater to foreigners. Just look for English signs on the door, and walk right in for an unforgettable night ahead.\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>7.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Scramble your way across Shibuya Crossing <\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f6fdd80 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f6fdd80\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-927bb32\" data-id=\"927bb32\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ce228f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1ce228f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static1.squarespace.com\/static\/5759c27e2b8dde3365a2ca6e\/t\/57da925729687fdaba247c04\/1473942112198\/\" \/><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1403f41 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1403f41\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-011e83d\" data-id=\"011e83d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cf9fc7b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cf9fc7b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Considered as the busiest intersection in the world, the Shibuya Crossing is an amusing spectacle to behold.

It\u2019s the perfect place to witness \u2018otaku\u2019 subculture at its best. The term otaku roughly refers to fangirl or fanboy. In Japan, most otakus geek out on anime (computer animation) and manga (comic books). They go to Akihabara to get their daily fix from specialty shops selling toys, books, magazines and other collectibles. Nevertheless, gadget shops still thrive in the neighborhood. You can still buy cheap cameras, the latest laptops and other electronic items in the area.<\/p><p><strong>9.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Meet Lady Luck in Sensoji Temple <\/strong><\/p><p>Tokyo\u2019s oldest temple is Sensoji Temple, located in Asakusa. Historical sites abound inside the temple, which was established in 645. You can also bring home souvenirs such as amulets for luck, calligraphy scrolls, traditional fans and woodblock prints. Walk around the temple\u2019s area too, as the surrounding streets are lined with food stalls selling traditional snacks.<\/p><p><strong>10.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Live the high life in Ginza <\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-351ba31 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"351ba31\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-73079b5\" data-id=\"73079b5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ae195bd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ae195bd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static1.squarespace.com\/static\/5759c27e2b8dde3365a2ca6e\/t\/57d9914e197aead736f11f20\/1473942805395\/\" \/><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5a79e58 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5a79e58\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-338ca55\" data-id=\"338ca55\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8c79c1c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8c79c1c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"block-yui_3_17_2_1_1473867879136_68873\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\" data-block-type=\"2\"><div class=\"sqs-block-content\"><p>High-end shopping is on the agenda at Tokyo\u2019s retail mecca of Ginza.
