What not to miss in Japan

The two most common places that foreign tourists visit in Japan are Tokyo and Kyoto.
This article lists some of the most common things for tourists to do in Tokyo and Kyoto.

In the Tokyo neighborhood of Harajuku, side streets spill over with young Japanese engaged in “cos play” – role-playing by way of elaborate costumes. Elvis imitators preen and croon to giggling girls in extra-long Frankenstein boots and burgundy hair. On the area’s main drag, Omotosando-dori, the uniform leans toward Armani and Burberry. Thousands troll the dramatic flagship stores of Europe’s top designers while nibbling on pastries and chocolates. A short walk from here, kimono-clad women fan incense smoke, drink ladlefuls of water from a central basin, and then stroll past bamboo and irises on their way to Meiji shrine.
