Discover Tokyo

The easiest way to explore Tokyo is by subway.

The lines converge like spaghetti on the subway map, but once you get used to it, it's definitely the easiest way to get around Tokyo.

If you use the subway , I often recommend buying tickets prepaid. There are actually two types, Suico and PASMO, but they are functionally interchangeable. You pay a deposit of 500 JPY plus the value of the accumulated value up to 20,000 JPY.

In addition to prepaid cards, you can also buy a special subway to travel most of the time in the subway - Train to spend train.
