Tokyo is one of the largest and most complex cities in the world. As the capital of Japan and close to the international airports of Narita and Haneda, it is the entry point for most visitors to Japan. As well, it is an interesting city and a historic centre, full of touristic sites well-worth a visit, fabulous shopping experiences, and a transit network that is very easy to use. Our map covers the touristic centre of a vast urban complex, from Shinjuku in the west to Asakusa in the east and from the Ginza north to Ikebukuro. The streets, rail lines, and rapid transit lines are all shown, as well as a large inset map showing the many transit rail options throughout the Tokyo region. The city includes an anomaly unlike any other city. In most of it, there are no street names, just neighbourhoods and districts, so names such as Ginza, Shibuya, Chiyoda, and Bunkyo become essential to determine where one is in the urban area. We have tried to name all these subdivisions. When in doubt, rely on subway station names. Side 2 of the map is actually an excellent regional map of central Japan, centred on the Tokyo urban agglomeration. Essentially, it covers Kanto and Chubu Provinces (hence the name on the cover) and covers such touristically important aspects as Mount Fuji, Nagoya, Kyoto, and Osaka. As such, this map becomes significantly important for tourists because it covers both the capital and many of the most visited portions of the country.
