For photographers, this mega city is without any doubt one of the most versatile places on earth, no matter which type of photography you enjoy. Although the city is extremely crowded, it can still look pretty empty during the night or in the early morning. So if this fits your type of photography, these time slots are probably best for you.
Travel tips for Tokyo
Transportation in Tokyo is like in any other huge city. Your prefered way to move from spot to spot should be the public transportation like trains or taxis. If you are using taxis, it's definitely recommended to write down the address of your apartment in Japanese letters.
Having a picture-book with you is also a good idea if you are not familiar with the local language because quite a lot of the people don't speak English. The idea behind this is to have the most common tasks on photos so that you can show the people what you are searching for or what you want, which is often easier than trying to translate each word.
Tokyo is located in Japan, a country with 425 photo spots that you might want to have a look at as well to find even more beautiful places for your next trip.
