Live Webcams in Tokyo

Tokyo, the largest metropolitan area on Earth, is also the one that rewards a live webcam most: the live webcams in Tokyo cover the great pedestrian crossings, the neon of the entertainment districts after dark, a rain-soaked walk through the back streets, the elevated expressway threading between towers, the bay with its planes descending into the airport, and the waterfront at Odaiba. Tōkyō keeps Japan Standard Time, UTC+9, with no daylight saving, so a European breakfast is Tokyo's early evening and the crossings are at their busiest. The scale is the fact worth knowing: some 37 million people live in the metro area, and the busiest crossing lets up to 3,000 of them through on a single green light. Late March brings cherry blossom to the streets; November the autumn colour.
