Tokyo Heterotopia -English ver

Let's travel through "Heterotopia" in Tokyo.
"Tokyo Heterotopia" is a sightseeing App that allows you to travel around "Asia" that exists inside Tokyo.
Guided by a map, users visit spots such as a theater, a religious facility, the remains of a refugee shelter, a dorm for overseas students, a cemetery, an ethnic restaurant, and a zoo. Once arriving at the spot, users get to hear stories about that place. These are stories that could have taken place there, created by poets and novelists as a response to research on Asian people who visited Tokyo as students, immigrants, and refugees.

Heterotopia" is a term coined by philosopher Michel Foucault to describe a "place of otherness" that actually exists in reality, differs from “utopia,” which does not exist. Please enjoy Tokyo as an unknown Asia and a "heterotopia within reality.”
