When a foreigner has a day for sightseeing in Japan, I would like to take him/her to Tokyo because Tokyo is the best place for the foreigner to know about Japan well in short time.

 

  Firstly, Tokyo has good museum that has very enjoyable exhibition about the Japanese history, especially Tokyo.   Tokyo Ohedo Museum in Ryogoku is one of the biggest historical museums in Tokyo, where we can look at each era's exhibitions such as traditional buildings or many pictures and we can touch some of them.   The most enjoyable floor reconstruct the traditional street of Edo age and we feel traditional atmosphere of Edo age.  Therefore the foreiner will know the Japanese history in short time and by touching some exhibition, he/she will enjoy learning it.

 

  Secondly, Tokyo has close to everywhere the foreigner needs.  If  the foreigner want to the real traditional historical place, he/she can has many choices.  Asakusa  gives the foreigner the specific atmosphere of life of people living in Tokyo.   If the people want to take rest in quiet park, Arisugawa Memorial Park and Shinjuku Gyoen are the most suitable.   There are lots of foreigners who live in Japan in  Arisugawa memorial park and therefore the foreigner will be able to interview them about living in Japan, which give the foreigner novel interesting point of view to Japan.
 
  Tokyo is near international airport and therefore, the foreigner will be able to spend comparatively much time on sightseeing to Japan.   Although the foreigner has only one day the visinity let him/her make the most of precious time.
