Marunouchi is on the west side of Tokyo Station, which is connected to many shinkansen, JR Yamanote, and other train and subway lines, and Otemachi Station, which has five subway lines, is nearby.





Marunouchi
Marunouchi (丸の内), Tokyo’s prestigious business district, combines historical significance with modern sophistication. Once home to Edo Castle’s powerful feudal lords, Marunouchi now hosts Japan’s top financial companies. Recent redevelopment has transformed the area, with sleek skyscrapers housing offices, upscale shops, and dining options. This revitalization has drawn tourists to this vibrant hub near Tokyo Station.
The iconic red-brick Marunouchi station building, dating back to 1914, stands as a historic landmark, beautifully restored to its pre-war glory. Across from it, the modern Yaesu Side, with its Gran Roof and skyscrapers, showcases Marunouchi’s perfect blend of tradition and innovation.
