Destination Essentials

With its four distinctly different seasons, Tokyo offers you another reason to visit with each passing season. If you're after viewing the blossoming cherry trees, the temperatures of spring (March to May) paint the perfect backdrop for sightseeing and lavish hanami parties.

However, if you're brave enough to bear the heat, the summertime (June to August) provides a colourful glimpse of the city with numerous festivals. Autumn, from late September to December, brings crisp weather and colourful foliage and shows a more calm side of the city.

In Winter (December to February), the city is peacefully quiet, adorned with twinkling festive lights and breathtaking views of snow-clad Mt Fuji in the distance. Whenever you're planning your trip, rest assured, Tokyo is a city full of surprises in every season.
