B) I love the lights and sights of downtown Tokyo.
Explanation:
This option actually uses capitalization properly, because Tokyo is a specific place, and therefore should be capitalized. Whereas downtown isn't a specific location, and is just used to reference the part of Tokyo.
All other options are wrong becasue they are either not capitalizing known locations, such as New Jersey, or are capitalising generic words such as city.
