Description
Book Introduction
We have released the world's thickest Tokyo guidebook, with 864 pages of information covering not only Tokyo but also its surrounding areas, including Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, Kawaguchiko, Sawara, and Kawagoe.

Why did you publish such a thick book with 864 pages?

What makes this book special

▶ A whopping 900 pages of information
▶ Includes over 150 'Aiden Style Maps' to help you easily plan your travel route.
▶ This book introduces 2,500 tourist destinations and restaurants so that you can cover everything about Tokyo and its surrounding cities in one place.
▶ More detailed introductions by theme, including food, cafes, drugstores, and landmarks.
▶ A comparison table that clearly answers the question: Which transportation pass should I buy?
▶ Not just one author, but a team of more than 10 Aiden travel guidebook authors researched and produced this book for over a year.

Aiden, a travel map specialist, has included over 150 detailed maps in this Tokyo guidebook.
Because I believe that when preparing for a trip, there is no tool more useful than a map.
We've carefully crafted these maps to help you understand the areas you're planning to visit as best as possible, so we recommend planning your trip around them.
No other publisher in the world offers a travel map of this type.
This is a unique map created only by Aiden.

I wonder if there are people who would say this.
"Who makes guidebooks this thick these days? They have to be portable!"

I actually thought the opposite.
If the fundamental reason for purchasing a guidebook is to relieve travel anxiety, then a thin guidebook with only a few pages of information won't be able to alleviate that anxiety.
A survey of many travelers found that, unlike before the development of smartphones, many travelers do not carry guidebooks while on the move, but rather open them before their trip or at their accommodations to look at the places they plan to visit the next day and plan their itinerary.

So, is there any reason to force the thickness of the book?
Just because the number of pages increases by 400, it doesn't mean the weight increases significantly.
Of course, it can be heavy to carry around, but most people put it in a carrier and move it.
So we decided.
“Let’s provide enough information, without holding back!”

There seems to be a misconception that analog is old-fashioned and bad.
Tabula Rasa is also moving towards digital, but currently sticks to analog travel information methods.
Because analog doesn't always mean it's inconvenient.
We will continue to provide the 'convenience' that is difficult to provide with digital machines through analog paper until the day analog ends.

Into the book
#Sumida River Fireworks Festival
Characteristics: Tokyo's largest fireworks festival, originating from fireworks started in 1733 to end a famine and drive away evil spirits.
The view of fireworks exploding around Tokyo Skytree is overwhelming.

Scale: Approximately 20,000 rounds
Date: Last Saturday of July (July 27, 2024, 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM)

Tips for viewing
For safety reasons, police control the roads and bridges near Asakusa Station to ensure that pedestrians continue walking in one direction without stopping.
?There aren't many places to sit and watch.
Controlled viewing while walking on roads or bridges
?Some people go to nearby roads or parks early and reserve a spot with a mat, but since it is held in the middle of the city, it is different from other fireworks displays.
Often obscured by buildings or trees (many failure reviews)

#Marunouchi Illumination
Tokyo's representative illumination.
About 820,000 LED bulbs decorate the Marunouchi Nakadori Street.

Schedule: Mid-November to Mid-January
Operating hours: 4:00 PM - 11:00 PM daily (until 12:00 AM in December)

Location: Around Tokyo Station and Marunouchi Nakadori

Observation point
Along with the Marunouchi Illumination, the nearby "Kyoko-dori Illumination" and "Marunouchi Street Park" events are also held, allowing you to enjoy illuminations, a Christmas market, and a skating rink all at once.


#Fuunji (Tsukemen restaurant)
The noodles are thick and the soup is quite salty, so if you like strong flavors, this is the place to go.
This is a famous tsukemen specialty restaurant in Shinjuku.
Choose between medium or large noodles.
Note that the large portion is more generous than the regular large portion.
The basic version doesn't include chashu, so add it to taste.
The restaurant is small, so there is a waiting line right behind the seats, making it difficult to enjoy a leisurely meal.
Order at the kiosk.
Special tsukemen about 1200 yen.

Publisher's Review
A travel book brand 'Aiden' created this book by walking, asking, and experiencing.
Our second overseas travel guidebook! Finally, Aiden departs for Tokyo (including Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, Kawaguchiko, Sawara, and Kawagoe).

Everyone says that.
If Aiden makes it, it's trustworthy!!!
Aiden doesn't just provide you with information; he helps you alleviate your travel anxiety.
With just this one book, you don't have to struggle to find information on the Internet anymore.

Tabla Rasa means 'blank slate' in Latin.
Like drawing on a blank sheet of paper,
Aiden wants to create travel content that doesn't yet exist in the world, line by line.

We won't rely on marketing to grow our brand, but will instead rely solely on content to be a small light for travelers.
As an innovation-driven startup, Tabula Rasa will offer a distinct edge over existing offerings, and armed with what our readers call "crazy details," we will advance into the world.


'Aiden' means 'little light' in Old Irish.
When you feel overwhelmed by your travel preparations, we will be a small light that illuminates your journey.

I sincerely hope that this guidebook can be that light.
We sincerely thank you for joining us at Aiden's beginning.
