About
Tokyo is the capital of Japan. It is a global city that serves as the financial capital of Asia and one of the financial centers of the world.

The greater metropolitan area of Tokyo is the world's most populous. Tokyo also offers world-class dining, nightlife, and shopping, and is home to a large number of multinational companies.
