D-Design Travel Tokyo (Revised edition) - Japanese / English bilingual magazine

D-Design Travel is a bilingual Japanese/English publication in which each issue focuses on different cities and areas of Japan. This particular issue focuses on the city of Tokyo.

The main objective of the D-Design Travel series books is to show travellers unique places, with local products and experiences that can only be found in each of these places. Therefore, the team behind each magazine has lived for a period of two months in each city or region in order to get to know it in depth and to be able to narrate their personal first-hand experience in each publication. One of the principles of the authors of D-Design Travel is to tell travellers about experiences that communicate a certain local aspect of each area or city so that they can discover places that do not appear in ordinary travel guides.

The texts of the magazine are written in Japanese and translated into English. The texts written in Japanese do not contain furigana, so an intermediate/high level is required to be able to understand them.

Each magazine includes a large number of colour photos that have been taken by the D-Design Travel team and have not been retouched so that the traveller can see each place exactly as it is.
