Tokyo's density and cultural complexity can overwhelm visitors. Wexplo helps decode each neighborhood — why Harajuku became a fashion laboratory, how Akihabara evolved from electronics market to anime capital, and what rituals to observe at Shinto shrines.

Local Tip

Walk through the forested approach to Meiji Shrine on a weekday morning. The 170-acre forest was planted tree by tree in the 1920s, and Wexplo narrates the Shinto traditions as you pass through the torii gates.
