Published in Geography 1 min read

Tokyo is bigger than London.

To understand the size difference, let's compare the areas of Tokyo and London:

Area Comparison

We can compare both the core city area and the greater metropolitan area:

Measurement Tokyo London
Core City Area 2,191 km² 1,572 km²
Greater Metropolitan Area 13,452 km² 8,382 km²

As the table shows, both the core city area and the greater metropolitan area of Tokyo are larger than those of London. Even when considering the greater metro area, London's area is roughly 2/3 to 3/4 the size of Tokyo.

Therefore, Tokyo is definitively bigger than London in terms of area.
