Those looking to discover the history of Tokyo and Japan should explore the Imperial Palace. Located in the heart of the city, this complex is the official residence of the Emperor of Japan. Here, you'll be able to visit several historic buildings including Edo Castle – where samurai warriors lived from the 17th to 19th century – and the Museum of the Imperial Collections, which exhibits the art collection of Emperor Hirohito.

A number of beautiful gardens surround the Imperial Palace, with the Chidori-ga-fuchi moat at Kita-no-maru-koen Park a popular place to see cherry trees blossom in April.

Culture vultures are sure to find the Tokyo National Museum makes for a fun afternoon. Displaying a comprehensive array of art and other artefacts from Japan and other countries in Asia, here you'll be able to see everything from 14th-century swords to Buddhist paintings that are more than 600 years old.

The museum regularly hosts special exhibitions alongside its permanent collection so there should also be something new for you to see.

If you're keen to engage with your spiritual side, head to Senso-ji. Tokyo's oldest temple, this stunning complex dates back to the seventh century.

Situated in the Asakusa region, it has expanded substantially over the years with Awashimado Hall, Nitenmon Gate and Bentendo Hall just three of the beautiful historic buildings to be seen here.

No trip to the Japanese capital would be complete without visiting the Tokyo Tower. One of the tallest freestanding towers in the world, this structure stands at 333 m high and in heading to one of the two observation platforms you'll be able to take in fantastic views of the city.

Go to the special observatory at 250 m up and on a clear day you may even be able to see as far at Mount Fuji!
