(Narita airport is actually located in Chiba, which is next prefecture to Tokyo) There are lots of places you got to visit, Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, Akihabara, Asakusa, Harajuku, Omotesando and so on. You can experience Japanese food, fashion, nightlife, entertainment and anything you want to do. Just do whatever you can.
