Tokyo, Japan, was just named the best big city in the world by Condé Nast Traveler.

Condé Nast Traveler conducts an annual Reader's Choice Survey to find out what its readers think are the best travel destinations in the world. This year, 600,000 people took the survey.

Tokyo took the top spot in the Big City category for 2019, wowing readers with its combination of city sights, nature landscapes, and delicious food.

On a trip to Japan's capital, many visitors enjoy taking in this view of the city's skyline from the Tokyo Bay.

Odaiba, Tokyo, is a small, man-made island that features a park, shopping, and entertainment destinations, according to Travel Japan.

Odaiba is best-known for its futuristic architecture, as featured on a travel guide from the site AFAR, like the Fuji TV building and the Tokyo Big Sight. It offers stunning views of the bay and the mainland. 

While you're there, you could go for a ride on Odaiba's colorful Ferris wheel.

Odaiba's Ferris wheel, Daikanransha, stands at almost 380 feet, according to Time Out Japan. The height gives those who ride a stunning view of Tokyo, particularly because the colorful buckets have transparent windows.
