A city where futuristic technology sits side by side with ancient culture, Japan’s Tokyo is as traditional as it is innovative, and for families, one of the world’s most captivating destinations.
A city of dizzying extremes, Tokyo will leave visitors dazzled and delighted. Mega-crossings, jam-packed subways and blinding neon-lit strips lead the way to serene 1000-year-old temples and gardens, perfect for kids who feel like frolicking in the grass.
Park life
If the kids want to climb and slide, Tokyo has no shortage of great kids’ playgrounds. But, like the city itself, they are far from ordinary. Toyosu Park, Asukayama Park and Setagaya Park are three of the best, with Toyosu offering train rides on a mini steam locomotive, pedal karts, a kid-sized shanty town, skateboard park and an outdoor pool, alongside its swings and slides.
