Our Metropolis Winter 2024 Issue is out now and the theme is Edo!

This issue, we journey back to Edo times. Step into Japan’s historic charm with a tour of Tokyo’s Edo-inspired eateries, a trip to Kanazawa, one of Japan’s best-preserved Edo cities, and more. We host an exclusive interview with YouTuber Matcha Samurai, and round up top winter events that honor the spirit of this remarkable period. Join us as we unveil the layers of history that shaped Japan and, under the surface, continue to influence it today.

We showcase local businesses to help international residents, top spots for tourists to visit, trendsetters in the spotlight and much, much more in Metropolis Winter 2024.

Whether you’re a new reader or you’ve been picking up Metropolis since we first launched, we wish you a warm welcome to our Winter Issue.
