Tokyo


Tokyo is fun. There is lots of buildings and people. The food is what I liked most. There was a lot of light.
Interesting facts
1)Tokyo is the seat of the Japanese government, home of the Emperor of Japan and is the capital of the country.
2)Earlier, Tokyo was a small fishing village named ‘Edo’, meaning estuary. Later, when it became the imperial capital of Japan, in 1868, its name was changed to Tokyo.
3)The name of Tokyo literally translates to Eastern Capital.
4)The 23 wards of Tokyo collectively constitute the ‘City of Tokyo’, which is one of the largest cities in the world.
5)Tokyo is one of the three world finance ‘command centers’, apart from New York and London.
