Tokyo Imperial Palace

A serene and majestic space blending lush greenery with historical architecture, located in the heart of Tokyo on the site of the former Edo Castle. The palace grounds offer a tranquil escape from the bustling city, showcasing seasonal beauty such as cherry blossoms and autumn foliage reflected in the moat. The 5-kilometer perimeter of the Imperial Palace is a popular running and walking course, providing a peaceful environment to enjoy nature throughout the year. Highlights include the "Imperial Palace East Garden," open to the public for free, where visitors can explore remnants of Edo Castle, meticulously maintained Japanese gardens, and historical gates. Relaxing on the lawn or strolling through the gardens offers a refreshing experience. Another must-see is the "Nijubashi Bridge," a classic tourist spot. The harmony between the bridge's reflection on the water and the palace's main gate creates a picturesque scene, making it a favorite photo spot for international visitors. Conveniently accessible from Tokyo Station or Otemachi Station, the Imperial Palace is a unique destination where you can simultaneously experience nature and history in the heart of the city. Take a moment to reset your mind and enjoy a peaceful journey at this iconic location.
