Tokyo is one of the biggest cities in the world. It is also huge and varied in its geography, with over 2,000 square kilometers to explore. While Bill Murray received all the critical acclaim for his performance in the 2003 hit film ""Lost in Translation,"" many have argued that it was in fact the city of Tokyo that was the real star. Alas, as most of the film is set in an hotel, it's probably the customs and manners of an aspect of Japanese life that are the true stars. Tokyo brings the most modern wonders of technology, commerce and architecture side by side with the old, and has something for everyone. Tokyo has more restaurants than you can possibly imagine, so see the main Japan guide for the types of food you will encounter and some popular chains. Menus are often posted outside, so you can check the prices. Some shops have the famous plastic food in their front windows.
