Tokyo – A very brief introduction

Tokyo is the largest metropolitan area in the world and has over 13 million inhabitants. No wonder visitors are overwhelmed and don’t know where to start their Tokyo adventure. Illustrator Luis Mendo teamed up with Herb Lester Associates to create a beautiful guide to set you of on the right path.

“This guide is a starting point, something to help you find your feet as you begin to navigate Tokyo’s streets. There are tips on etiquette, advice on getting around, useful phrases and a series of walks to help the visitor get acclimatised.

The map is written, designed and illustrated by Luis Mendo. It is A3 (297x420mm) folded to A6 (105x148mm), and litho printed in England on recycled paper.”
