5. Tokyo, Japan
Tokyo City never sleeps as hundreds of thousands of pedestrians cross the Shibuya intersections day and night. Nightlife in Tokyo can be experienced and summarily categorised into four different districts–Shinjuku, Shibuya, Roppongi, and Ginza.

Activities like all-night bowling rings, table tennis (ping-pong), pool halls, karaoke bars, and partying hard under strobe lights in the district’s nightclubs. Ginza on the other hand offers entertainment that may be considered expensive, such as high-end restaurants that serve Politicians and other celebrities.

Roppongi offers Japanese culture and art history entertainment to locals and visitors, while Shinjuku takes you back to the pre-war Japanese era and aesthetics.
