Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum

Reviewed By SAVVYTRAVELER331

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!

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.

Tokyo Central Railway Station

Reviewed By Hasnah1962 - Singapore, Singapore

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.

First Avenue Tokyo Station

Located underneath Tokyo Station, First Avenue's main features are Character Street, where shops sell goods based on Japanese cartoon characters, and Ramen Street, where there are eight ramen shops.

Reviewed By nsx_mags - Sydney, Australia

Underneath Tokyo Station, nearest to the Nihombashi Exit (no need to enter the train station ticket gates), there is actually a full level of stores to find merchandise of all your favourite Japanese Anime, Movie, & TV Characters (like Pokemon, Hello Kitty, Totoro, One-Piece, Kureyonshinchan, Rilakkuma, Star Wars...), and toy shops (Lego, Tomica), and Japanese traditional souvenirs (like kabuki, origami items). And if you keep walking, it continues on to food stores which showcases cruisines from various regions of Japan (as highlighted on a map of Japan outside each shop). There are restaurants in another level as well. As such, it can get very busy and attract a lot of tourists and young families. BEFORE YOU START SHOPPING at First Avenue, please register with the Tax-Free Office located inside the station building on the ground floor. They will register you, and give you a tax-free booklet to present to each of the First Avenue shops counters when you make your purchases. All the receipts will be added to your booklet, and when you finish shopping, go back to the Tax-Free Office to claim tax refund for all the receipts in the booklet. As it was my first visit, and I didn't notice any signs, until the nice people at the Lego store pointed out to me where I can claim my tax, I had to go back to every store I buy from, and each had to re-process my purchases and attach the correct paperwork to my Tax-Free booklet.

Tokyo Ramen Street

Came here with a friend who lives in Tokyo and says that all the best ramen restaurants also have shops here. They had veggie ramen and gluten free ramen (not technically the best since brown rice noodles but still!) The whole alley is super cute and a hidden gem in Tokyo station

A building with a bit of everything. Great food (seriously good sushi restaurant), interesting shops, a good supermarket (B1) and a fabulous and free natural science museum.
