December 22, 2021 Marianna Hollaway

Chiyoda is located in Central Tokyo.This popular ward attracts visitors with views of the Imperial Palace, which takes up 12% of the ward! For travelers who love a good play, this ward houses one of the largest performing arts theaters in Tokyo, which contains nearly 3,000 seats. While you're there, take a walk over the most photographed bridge in Japan--the Nijubashi Bridge--and enjoy the whimsical backdrop, which includes a breath-taking view of the Palace. There on a honeymoon? Try eating out at one of many restaurants located in the Ekimae Plaza Building.

Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum

We happened upon this very special museum when we entered Marunouchi Brick Square and decided to view the current exhibition, which was "All About Mariano Fortuny." It did not disappoint! The historic red-brick building is a wonder in itself. Such a pleasure to walk through the rooms showcasing the exhibition. Easy to navigate, with the fashion and art beautifully displayed. There is also a lovely shop and a charming café. Also, right outside the museum, in Brick Square, are several restaurants and cafés. Definitely worth a visit!

Akihabara

Every electronic gadget imaginable can be found in the stores of this hi-tech, neon-lit neighborhood. The Sony Plaza is one of the most popular shopping destinations in the district.

This part of Tokyo is nick named ‘Electric Town’ because after World War II it was a major shopping center for household electronic goods and the post-war black market. Today you can find anything electronic here from cell phones, gaming consuls, cameras, computers and peripherals, and anything anime. We visited a couple stores selling only old original computer consul games from 30 years ago! There are also several multi-floor arcade gaming sites. My favorite store behind the train station was Yodabashi Electronics which was the largest electronics store I’ve ever seen. Think of it as a ‘Best Buy’ store multiplied by 10 in size!

I just walked through this place on my way to go to Ginza from Tokyo station. The design of the architecture was amazing and spent about 20 minutes for taking some photos.

We took the Shinkansen bullet train from Nagano and disembarked at this station. Opened in 1914, the station has been recently renovated to a beautiful grand colonial building in striking red brick. It is connected to many shopping malls via underground passages.
