Chiyoda

Few cities in Tokyo have a history as closely tied to the seat of national power as Chiyoda. The ward contains the Imperial Palace, on the site of Edo Castle, the base from which the Tokugawa shoguns ruled Japan. Moats and gardens preserve a broad green centre amid one of the world’s largest urban areas, while the Kanda River runs along part of Chiyoda’s northern boundary. Nearby, the National Diet Building anchors Nagatacho, and Akihabara is internationally associated with electronics, manga and anime culture. Tokyo Station’s red-brick Marunouchi building is another major landmark on the district’s eastern side. Move on to other webcams in Tokyo to compare districts and city settings around Chiyoda.
