There was as much sightseeing as could be wedged into one week, each to his/her own taste. Our hosts served as personal guides, asking us to make requests. On this trip I did very little exploration beyond the art scene in Saitama and Tokyo. My wish was to feel some introductory acquaintance with Japan on this visit and then return again another year to see more. The Ginza section of Tokyo is like no other city I've been in. Architectural facets seem to glisten.
