Default Re: Japan-recommendations?

Good daytrip from Tokyo - Kamakura (well worth it, lots of interesting temples, big outdoor Buddha, good shops). Tokyo is short on "must sees" but totally amazing to see the spectacle. The Shinjuku subway station at rush hour is simply incredible. The Imperial Palace gardens are a nice green lung in the middle of the concrete jungle and worth a look.
