Places to go in and around Tokyo

Where do you want to go?

Unless you're really familiar with Tokyo, it helps to have a good subway map and travel guide. With those, you should be able to get to most of the city's famous attractions without much trouble.

But if you plan on staying in Japan for more than a few weeks, travel guides may not offer you all the help you need. Where do you go to watch movies? Buy English-language books or imported food? Purchase a low-price CD player? Or pick up any of those other items that make you feel at home? You won't find a lot of these places in most travel books.

Even if you're only going to be in Japan a few days, you might want to find out about . . .
