Tokyo has so many landmarks to choose from, it’s hard to know where to start, but the Tokyo Imperial Palace definitely deserves a spot on your list!

Located right in the heart of the city, it’s the primary residence of Japan’s Emperor and surrounded by beautiful gardens and moats.

You can't actually enter the palace itself, the East Gardens are open to the public and absolutely stunning, especially in spring and autumn.

Pro Tip: plan ahead if you want a guided tour, they book out fast!

If you want to dive deeper, GetYourGuide offers a fantastic tour of the gardens and surrounding area, highly recommend booking ahead for a richer experience!

We'll pop the link here.
