Chiyoda City

The center of Japanese politics and history. Centered around the Imperial Palace, it has many faces: Chidorigafuchi, where cherry blossoms flutter in spring; Jimbocho, the town of second-hand bookstores; and Akihabara, the mecca for anime and electronics. It is an area worth exploring where Japanese tradition and modern subculture coexist.
