A morning light slips between narrow alleys and high glass facades as your guide—also a professional photographer—leads you through Tokyo’s layered face: market cries, lacquered doorways, and the hush of a traditional tea house. Cameras click at a Japanese garden designated as a special scenic spot; later, the frenetic colors of a new fish market offer a counterpoint to Ginza’s refined storefronts.
