This Ancient Japanese City Can Only Be Appreciated Through Cat Pictures{images warning}

5. Now me, I love Tokyo

perhaps because that's where I lived.

Tokyo's charms are not in the tourist areas but in the ordinary neighborhoods, which are really former villages absorbed by the city.

Kyoto is great, too, but please, not in August, because the city is surrounded by mountains on three sides, there is no air moving, and the whole city becomes one giant steambath.
