Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

Hachiko is a legend in Tokyo, so much so that copy statues of this faithful are common (such as in Don Quixote). But this is the real deal, and a great photo opportunity. The statue is easily located outside Shibuya station, and definitely worth visiting and knowing the story so you can understand the obsession with all the Hachiko souvenirs!
