10 things to look forward to in 2021 in Tokyo and Japan

2020 has been quite a doozy. What was supposed to be an exciting year for Tokyo turned into entry bans and states of emergency due to Covid-19. However, a new year is approaching and we’re getting our hopes up – the government is considering allowing international tourists in spring 2021, just in time for the Olympics.

This year saw tons of new openings, from Shibuya’s Miyash*ta Park to trendy food halls like The Restaurant at Eat Play Works, Commissary and Toranomon Yokocho. The ever-evolving city is still transforming as we head into 2021 and there’s plenty more to come, from art festivals to new theme parks. Did you spend last year planning your dream Japan trip? Here are ten things to look forward to in 2021 – and we look forward to seeing you in Tokyo soon.

BALER TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS FOR DOMESTIC TOURISTS

Some destinations are bold, and some are safe. During the pandemic, Baler has been the latter — and rightfully so.

Tightly guarded, Baler was one of the last standing COVID-free cities in the Philippines; and for the first time since the pandemic, the town finally started allowing visitors to enter its premises on 15 Nov 2021. Learn more about the latest Baler travel requirements here.
