Overview
SEE ALSO: Narita
Tokyo, literally "eastern capital", is one of the 47 prefectures of Japan and includes the highly urbanized central area formerly known as the city of Tokyo which is the heart of the Greater Tokyo Area. Although not a single city, the Tokyo metropolis is the capital of Japan and it is home to the Japanese government and emperor. About 12 million people—10 percent of the country's population—live in Tokyo, while approximately 33–36 million people live in the entire Greater Tokyo conurbation, making it effectively part of the most populated urban area on Earth.
The Airport
Within Tokyo, Tokyo International Airport ("Haneda") offers mainly domestic flights. Outside of Tokyo, Narita International Airport, located in Narita in the Chiba Prefecture, is the major gateway for international travelers.
