Choosing Tokyoʼs Most Popular Spots Campaign
The “Tokyo 100” Results Information Page Officially Opens!

- Site to debut in multiple languages alongside leaflet guide introducing Tokyoʼs finest sightseeing locations -

TripAdvisor^(R), the worldʼs largest travel site^* from reviews to bookings, and the Bureau of Transportation of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government (also known as Toei) announced the launch of a dedicated lander showcasing the cityʼs most loved things to see and do.
The campaign, which ran from April 2016 to March this year, was conceptualized to help travelers discover tours and attractions in Tokyo beyond what is already known to international tourists.
These were based on reviews and opinions submitted by locals visiting or residing in the city.

The TOKYO 100 selected destinations were announced last month, and will now be available for viewing on the official TOKYO100 website, detailed below.

3. About the TOKYO 100

Conducted over a one-year period from April 2016, the Tokyo 100 campaign had called for local travelers living in or commuting to Tokyo to review their favourite places that were outside the regular tourist attractions.
This included intriguing ʻoff the beaten trackʼ places that they considered the cityʼs best kept secrets.
The 100 things to do and 20 gourmet places to eat were based on the quality and quantity of reviews submitted on TripAdvisor by Japanese reviewers, in order to provide a more diverse Tokyo experience to travelers visiting the city.
