The top 20 places to visit in Tokyo, as chosen by travelers

Trip Advisor allows users to evaluate sightseeing attractions, and below are their top 20 picks for sightseeing places to visit in Tokyo.

20. National Art Center, Tokyo

The eclectic exhibitions of this Roppongi art museum, opened in 2008, have run the gamut from Japanese anime art to classic European masterpiece paintings. An especially nice touch is that, unlike many Japanese museums, this one is actually open on Mondays, taking Tuesday as its regular day off instead.

19. Happoen

A number of banquet halls dot the grounds of this garden in the Shirokanedai neighborhood, but the lovely landscaping makes it worth a visit even if you’re not on the guest list for any events being held inside.

18. Edo Tokyo Museum

While there are dozens of museums in Tokyo, this one stands out by also being about Tokyo, with displays and exhibits tracking the city’s transformation from a feudal era town of middling importance to one of the most dynamic metropolises in the world.
