Welcome to Tokyo Japan with the 2018 Winter Olympics finished in neighboring Korea

未來進行式

It's time to turn our attention here to Tokyo where the 2020 Summer Games will be taking place now

And the city of Tokyo will be undergoing a lot of rapid changes

The games are promised to be the most technologically advanced of all time

And you can see that in the way the city is evolving

Behind me is the Olympic Stadium, which is being built at a rapid pace

Well it's not quite done yet the new national stadium

Which will host the opening ceremony on July 24th 2020 is still a work in progress and you can start to see it taking shape?

The site is a busy place full of activity

When completed it will look like this. These are the designs by architect Kengo Kuma. That's made and chosen

By the committee and they encompass a very natural look

The Tokyo 2020 Olympic logo has been all over the city since Tokyo won the Olympics in 2013.

The logo expresses a refined elegance and sophistication

That exemplifies Japan according to its designer

Japan also has new taxis more spacious and luxurious than the sedans of the past

The new national stadium sits on the exact site of the stadium used for the 1964 Summer Games just a short way from Shinjuku

We know about the venue's the sports today, and what the city of Tokyo is like today as we move towards the future of 2020

Let's look at the zones and venues first for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics

Here's the city one of the most populated urban areas in the world. It's really a sight to see from the sky

Tokyo will be divided into two sections for the Olympics

Heritage where the venue will include many from the 1964 Tokyo Summer Games

and Tokyo Bay an area of newly reclaimed land that is now being developed

The Heritage Zone has a lot of history that blank area down there is where

The new National Stadium is being built next door is the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, which will be used for table tennis

Nearby is a place famous for concert and performances but was built in 1964

The "Nippon Budohkan" or simply the Budohkan. Judo and Karate will be held here

Over in the Tokyo Bay zone, the Olympic Aquatic Centre BMX and skateboard course

Tennis and sport climbing will take place among other sports

12 venues are outside of these zones including wrestling, baseball and basketball

As I said, this is all reclaimed land and down there is where the Olympic Village will be located

It's a beautiful location with views of Tokyo's Rainbow Bridge in the city skyline

As you can see there are a lot of cranes prepping for construction

The whole city is undergoing renovations including Shibuya station

Despite the work people keep on moving. The Olympics has always pushed Japan to another level where fantasy meets reality

1964 saw rapid development, and we're seeing it again now today

There are 34 venues that will be used to host the

324 events in 33 sports. The Olympics added five new sports with skateboarding being the most notable

Oh, and wrestling is back. The average price of an Olympic ticket is seven thousand seven hundred yen

And the opening ceremony will cost twenty five thousand to one hundred fifty thousand yen

The Tokyo Olympics mascot will be chosen by six point five million schoolchildren On February 28th. Here are the choices

Mascots called "Yurukyara" in Japanese are fantastically ridiculous, but an important part of the culture

I featured the Japanese mascot Grand Prix in a previous episode of 'Only in Japan'

We can be sure that whoever gets the nod to represent Japan it'll be unique

I'm really proud to be a resident of Tokyo and to be living here at this time an exciting time as the city moves towards the future

Japan has always been a really good host of the games whether it was in 1964 for the Summer Games in Tokyo

98 for Nagano Olympics and again in 2020 here in Tokyo I know it's gonna be a really wonderful event I tried to bring you Japan

I'm gonna bringing you lots of places around the city and you are gonna

See how the place evolves over the next two and a half years. I'm really excited about it. I hope you are too

Next time we're back to cover in Japan. Japanese have one of the longest

Lifespans in the world and I wanted to find out the secrets to their longevity

I visited my 106 year-old friend in "Tottori" prefecture to see if she'll let us in on that secret
