Tokyo is a famous city There are a few good buildings and impressive temples; there are

a few parks worth visiting Everything has to be small in Tokyo: houses, rooms, shops Long-side streets consist of tiny houses only, and this often creates a toy-like, with small

women tip-toeing along in their kimonos

Tokyo at night is a very different place from Tokyo in daytime Millions of neon lights are switched on and nowhere in the world is more attractive

A town is not its buildings alone; it is an atmosphere, its pleasure, its sadness, its

madness, and above all its people Tokyo may lack architectural beauty but it has character and excitement; it is alive I found it a mysterious and lovable city
