Tokyo Station offers a wide variety of restaurants and shopping areas

Tokyo Station is the rail gateway to Japan.

In addition to being a station, Tokyo Station also offers a variety of restaurants and shopping areas.

Ginza, Japan's leading luxury commercial district

Ginza is one of Japan's largest downtown areas and is lined with many high-end stores. Many long-established Japanese stores are located here. The eye-catching clock tower located in the center of Ginza at the Ginza 4-Chome intersection has become a landmark of the area. With art galleries and gourmet spots aplenty, not to mention multiple tourist information centers, the area is a haven for travelers.

Nihombashi, the center of Japan since the Edo Period

Nihombashi is one of a few districts that together served as the central downtown area of Edo (now Tokyo) during the Edo period (1603 - 1868). It thus boasts a deep historical and cultural significance for Japan. The bridge crossing over the Nihombashi River, for which the area was named, is recognized as a National Important Cultural Property. The lion holding the coat of arms of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government at the four corners of the bridge and the kirin (also spelled qilin, a mythical creature in various East Asian cultures) statues on both sides in the center are famous symbols of the area. In addition to the business districts, the surrounding area is also bursting with art galleries, museums, department stores, and other spots that embody modern Japan.
