JNTO's new Tokyo Olympics site helps travellers prepare for the Games

The Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO) has launched its new Tokyo and Beyond 2020 website, an all-new website designed to serve as a comprehensive travel resource for those planning to visit Japan during the Olympic and Paralympic games.

More than just a guide to the Olympics, the JNTO envisioned Tokyo and Beyond 2020 to function as a definitive guide to the greater destination of Japan, providing visitors with information to have the best experience not only in Tokyo, but in the prefectures just beyond.

Currently available in both English and simplified Chinese, Tokyo and Beyond 2020 is an interactive database featuring essential information like transit routes, accessibility, and venue locations, while also providing a list of recommended accommodations, spotlights on Japan’s cuisine and culture, and answering frequently asked traveller questions.

The site will continue to be updated with new content in the buildup to the games. Visitors can look forward to video content with Olympic athletes, features on popular and lesser-known tourist attractions, and even curated itineraries in the months to come.

The site is available here.
