Getting around

Tokyo’s trains are the easiest way to move; an IC card and a rail pass cover almost everything. Plan lunch near a prayer space and you’ll never be caught out.

Where to eat halal

From certified ramen counters in Asakusa to halal wagyu in Shibuya, Tokyo’s halal scene has exploded. Our directory maps the best.

Where to pray

Tokyo Camii in Yoyogi-Uehara is the largest mosque, and many malls and stations keep quiet multi-faith rooms.

Neighbourhoods worth your time

Asakusa for tradition, Shibuya and Shinjuku for energy, and Odaiba for family fun and teamLab.
