What people say about Tokyo

Tokyo is one of my favorite cities in the world, and I can not wait to go back. There is so much to explore and it is so big that it feels more like a collection of cities that happen to be one continuous whole. One of the best things for me was just wandering around visiting temples, gardens, and residential neighborhoods when I wanted some calm, and then going straight into the busy parts of the city like Ginza, Akihabara, Shibuya, and Harajuku. To be able to completely choose the energy level for the day. I also loved the food, the glorious food. Everything from simple curry restaurants mainly targeting Japanese workers, the Japenese pubs with excellent pub grub called Izakayas, to more upscale establishments where everything is cooked and presented in the most perfect way. Sometimes it felt strange to eat such pretty creations. Even the shopping was enjoyable. And I hate shopping. I liked how I could find so many unfamiliar high-quality items, and also how several of my favorite brands like Adidas had Japan/Tokyo-specific products. People are very friendly, so it always works out in the end even though it was a little tricky getting by using only English at times.
