TOKYO TRIP

INTERESTING FACTS

• Capsule hotels are little boxes in the wall that contain a bed and tv with air conditioning and heating

It is an incredibly clean city even though it has a big population and not that much space to keep them. In fact there aren't very many homeless people and the homeless people you do find live in clean boxes, sometimes they have a little garden.

The Tokyo bathrooms are very special, first off, you have to wear certain slippers when in the bathroom but can't wear them outside of the bathroom or else it contaminates the house. You also have to clean your body with just soap and then soak in the bathtub, everyone in the house uses the same water. Last but not least, the toilets are very high tech. They have electronic buttons that can play music, and clean down there if you need extra help.

Tokyo has many parks and gardens. All of them being different from the rest, this attracts tourists and brings money in. Every garden is beautiful and you will be awestruck at the pure elegance of each of them
