Tokyo

About 35 million people live in the Greater Tokyo Area which encompasses Tokyo-to and surrounding prefectures, making it the world's most populous metropolitan area.

Because of its huge population and wealth, many world records are or were held here, including the most expensive real estate ever ($1.5 million/sq meter in 1990), the most expensive city for over a decade running, the most passengers served by its train system, and has the largest GDP of any metropolitan area in the world.
