Nice – I’m terrible for those kinds of quizzes! I scored 60% for Tokyo but 90% for London. What did you get Shane?
Honor – I scored 80% but I have to admit to guessing at some of the answers. This wasn’t the easiest quiz but I did learn some new things, so it’s all good!
I’m surprised the question, “Which ward of Tokyo is known for having the most expensive hostess bars?” wasn’t included.
Funny, Billy! If you know please share it with The Tokyo Traveler readers. I’m sure there are a few who would be interested
