#September2024 Marunouchi and Tokyo Station are definitely one of my favorite spots when visiting Tokyo. The appearance of Tokyo Station is very spectacular, especially its classical style of red brick building, which gives people a sense of history. The square in front of the station is spacious and bright, and the surrounding skyscrapers form a sharp contrast with the station. This landscape that blends tradition and modernity makes me want to take photos every time I come here. After leaving the station, I often stroll along the streets of Marunouchi. The tree-lined walkways are very pleasant here, and there are many cafes and shops where I can enjoy a meal while taking in the surrounding scenery. Especially at dusk, the skyscrapers and Tokyo Station illuminated by the setting sun complement each other, making me feel an indescribable beauty. Whether it is to appreciate the architectural beauty of Tokyo Station or enjoy the urban atmosphere of Marunouchi, this is a tourist hotspot that I cannot miss. #TokyoAttractions #TokyoStation #CheckIn #GlobalTravel #100TravelWays

We ate at a restaurant with a view of Tokyo Station 🥗When we entered the restaurant, the station was beautifully illuminated by the setting sun. The sun went down in an instant, and a glittering night view was right in front of us ✨Tokyo Station at night was also exceptionally beautiful 🌃

Marunouchi Street Park is known as Marunouchi Naka-Dori Ave and within walking distance from Tokyo station. It is an area whereby you can have a coffee or eat a quick lunch or even rest your eyes. It is a quiet street in a bustling city in Tokyo and some parts of the roads are closed off to traffic. There are also many luxury boutique shops along this road and you can also find roadside café with Parisian vibes too. Sometimes there will be scheduled street markets being organized here. A great place to people watch too! #wheretogo #japan #tokyo #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

#TokyoTravel ❤️ The center of Tokyo, Tokyo Station where all trains pass through, Otemachi, and Hibiya, the pinnacle of sophistication, Marunouchi! Marunouchi Street is always full of festivals, and the most famous festival is the illumination at the end of the year!! I still remember the sound of the street piano played here! The elegant and luxurious high-rise buildings centered around Tokyo Station are mostly offices and shopping malls, and I felt the energy of Tokyo! If you go in the winter, I really hope you add this to your travel itinerary! 📍 Marunouchi 丸の内, Tokyo Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo Station ~ Imperial Palace East Garden ~ Hibiya Park #HotPlace #Tokyo #Travel

#SpringFlowers Marunouchi is located between Tokyo Station and the Imperial Palace in Chiyoda Ward, Japan!! There are many red brick buildings and many flowers and trees, so if you go in the spring, you can see really pretty scenery!! There are also many pretty shops such as flower shops, so there are many things to see on the street. Among them, the Marunouchi Mitsubishi Museum of Art has a pretty building exterior and is surrounded by flowers and grass like a garden, so it is a great spot to go in the spring!! I also recommend a cafe called [Le Cafe] near the Mitsubishi Museum of Art. It is a bakery that sells delicious desserts, and the view is also good because you can see the grass and flowers outside! #JapaneseCafe #FlowerViewing #PlacesToVisitInTokyo

We like the accommodation here. Minimal and young people like it. 💕 . I liked it since I saw the black and white lines. The more I entered, the more I liked it. Use a key card system to tap the elevator to go up. It's safe. Downstairs is a minimalist cafe. There are a lot of power outlets. . The room is in a white tone that is easy on the eyes. The room is much larger than other places I've stayed. Walking past each other, 2 people won't bump into each other. The table is wide enough to put your suitcase up there. There's a lot of space to use. There's space for many bags behind the door. . The room has an air conditioner on the ceiling, an air purifier, a refrigerator, a flat-screen TV. The headboard is wide, can put a lot of things. There's a rotating light switch. There are also plug sockets and USB ports at the head of the bed. There are a lot of plug sockets. Counting, there are 8 sockets, both at the door, the table, the headboard and the bathroom. It's good. 👍🏻 . The bathroom is as wide as the bedroom. It's the first time I've stayed in a room with a separate bathroom and shower room. There's a basket for clothes, a towel drawer and a hair dryer at the sink. The toilet is also a new type, automatic. The shower room has a door that opens and is a sitting shower. There is a small chair and a bowl of bath water. There is a shower head. The bathtub is very wide and not too deep. There is a button to adjust the light to be white or orange. It gives a different atmosphere. The toiletries are complete and smell very good 😍. Near Marunouchi Station Exit 6 (4 flights of stairs) But if you have a lot of luggage, I recommend taking the elevator. It's a bit far to walk. But you don't have to carry your luggage up 4 flights of stairs, lol #Chubu #Nagoya #tripblazers #newyearadventure #yearofrabbit

Illuminations have arrived again this year on the rows of trees between the buildings in Marunouchi. The trees on the road that runs straight from Hibiya were beautifully illuminated, entertaining the people. It's quite a long road, so if you want to see it all, I recommend wearing comfortable shoes. #Christmas #Illuminations #TokyoSightseeing

Marunouchi Nakadori is always stylish, but during the autumn foliage season, it looks like a lady wearing a mosaic pattern of green, yellow, and red. The stone pavement, the tree-lined roads, and the tasteful shop windows make it seem like Europe. Is it just my imagination, or do I feel like I've become fashionable as I walk down the street? Looking up from between the buildings at the layers of autumn leaves and the blue sky in the gaps, it's a painting of the city and nature!!

Location: Marunouchi Terrace, 1-3 Marunouchi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo Access: Directly connected from Otemachi Station B1b exit. *Accessible via underground passage from JR Tokyo Station Lunch starts from 1500 yen, so you can enjoy authentic Italian food at a reasonable price. There is also terrace seating outside. #TokyoTrip#Gourmet

I requested a seat by the window in advance, and they gave me a seat in the back, so I was able to enjoy myself in peace and quiet without being bothered by the noise in the center of the restaurant. They were also considerate of my seat, even though it was hard to keep an eye on them during busy times, and came to take my order at the right time. There was a wide selection of alcoholic drinks, and the food was delicious. Thank you for the meal!

There are many illumination spots in Tokyo ✨ Here are our top 5 recommendations! ① Marunouchi illumination ② Yomiuriland ③ Oi Racecourse ④ Tokyo Midtown ⑤ Harry Potter: A Gift from the Wizarding World Why not go see the winter-only illuminations? 🤗 #recommendedlist #illumination #tokyo

This is the Marunouchi Exit station building of Tokyo Station♪ Tokyo Station is one of Japan's most famous stations. The Marunouchi Line station building at the west exit is a famous tourist spot. It's a great spot for taking retro photos both day and night. Tokyo Station has a unique structure that is different from other major stations in Japan, such as an entrance for the imperial family (1st photo) and the Tokyo Station Hotel (3rd photo), which is located inside the station building. Tokyo Station has the nature of being the gateway to Tokyo. It's also recommended to take a stroll around the station while waiting for a train or bus! #TokyoStation #SupportTourism #NightView #WanderingTokyo #Tokyo #SupportTourism #BreathtakingView #AJourneyToEnjoySpring

This is the night view of Marunouchi 🌃✨ Tokyo Station and its surrounding area, the land gateway to Tokyo. Marunouchi is bustling with businessmen during the day, but at night there are few people and it is very easy to take pictures ♪ The station building at the Marunouchi exit of Tokyo Station has a long history and has been renovated many times. The combination of the retro station building and the office district with modern buildings towering neatly around it makes for a very photogenic photo ✨ You can take beautiful night views regardless of the season. #Tokyo#nightview #breathtakingview

BUTTER Biei Hoboku Rakunoujou, located in the Marunouchi Building near Tokyo Station, is a must-visit this summer for anyone who loves butter, sweets, and authentic Hokkaido flavors! The moment you step in, you’ll spot staff churning fresh butter behind the counter — a fun, artisanal touch that sets the mood for what’s to come. You can even buy the butter to take home, making it the perfect edible souvenir. It’s so popular there’s often a long queue, but it’s worth the wait. We started with their potato soup — creamy, warm, and comforting. Next up was the Cremet d’Anjou, a refreshing, silky cheese mousse that’s perfect for Tokyo’s summer heat. The star of the show? Their signature butter with pancake. It’s served with a generous 100g of freshly churned butter — rich, creamy, and pure Hokkaido goodness. Can’t finish it all? No problem — they’ll pack the butter for you to take home! BUTTER Biei Hoboku Rakunoujou is more than just a café — it’s a unique summer experience where you can savor artisanal butter, delicious food, and a taste of Hokkaido right in the heart of Tokyo. #tokyospots

My favorite rich pudding in Tokyo! Jiichiro is known for its baumkuchen, which has a moist and dense texture that sets it apart from the usual dry baumkuchen. However, what truly amazed me was their pudding! The pudding has a smooth texture with a distinct egg and milk flavor, perfectly complemented by a slightly bitter caramel sauce. It's rich in taste but not overwhelming. If you're visiting Tokyo, I highly recommend giving it a try. Address: 2 Chome-7-2 Marunouchi, Chiyoda City, Tokyo 100-0005, Japan

It's almost unbelievable that such a serene place exists right in the middle of Tokyo's bustling streets. The Tokyo Imperial Palace (皇居, Kōkyo) is the residence of the Emperor of Japan and also serves as a peaceful retreat for citizens, featuring beautiful gardens and walking paths. The outer walking paths of the Imperial Palace are particularly popular among local office workers for jogging, and tourists love it as a tranquil and scenic spot to unwind. 🌿☘️ The expansive moats, historic stone walls, bridges, and pine trees create a picturesque view that resembles a watercolor painting. After your walk, consider heading towards the Marunouchi café street near Tokyo Station or the Kitano-maru Park for more exploration. To wrap up the day, I ended with some delicious sushi at Tokyo Station's food area. 🍣

#TokyoTravel #JapanTravel #tokyostation 👋Ohayo from Tokyo, Japan🇯🇵 ✨️Marunouchi area (丸の内 Marunouchi) Chiyoda Ward, one of the special districts of Tokyo, Japan, near the Imperial Palace, is home to Tokyo Station. ✨️The station building on the Marunouchi side is a prominent red brick building, built in 1914 and renovated in 2012 to look like it was before the war. In addition to tourist services, there are also hotels, restaurants, and museums here. Tokyo Station is a “cultural property” that will be given special care by the Japanese Cultural Agency as a cultural heritage of the Japanese people. 🎈https://maps.app.goo.gl/tvHR3B5ftqygxEqH8

#historicallandmarks Tokyo station amazing views at night

Who knows! Meet Diptyque in Tokyo's Marunouchi, and directly refresh the experience of the fragrance store✨ I went to the small store in Yokohama before, squeezed in the aisle and had to queue up, the experience was like a roadside stall... But this one in Marunouchi is completely different! The atmosphere in the store is super chill, and the clerk is so gentle~ I thought I had to wait outside with my dog, but the clerk took the initiative to let the cart into the store, it was so heartwarming🥹 I bought a fig candle and Toussaint perfume. The berry scent of figs is mixed with a faint milky scent, which is super healing in summer; Toussaint floral scent is fresh and close to the skin, and it is a perfect match for spring and summer🌿 I also visited the Imperial Palace area. There are many delicious restaurants on this street from Otemachi to Marunouchi. The Japanese style is mixed with modernity, which is very similar to the fusion of Shanghai Bund and Lujiazui. The atmosphere is so comfortable that I don't want to leave~ Compared with the prosperity of Roppongi and Ginza, the tranquility and gentleness of Marunouchi are my favorite💫 If you are a fragrance lover, this Diptyque must be locked in Tokyo! Buy incense, check in, feel the atmosphere of the neighborhood, a trip full of romance 💕 #TokyoShoppingGuide

I’d seen the iconic red-brick building of Marunouchi Square pop up on social media countless times, and it instantly made my must-visit list while in Japan. Known for its European-style architecture and deep historical charm, this area right outside Tokyo Station’s Marunouchi Exit is as photogenic in real life as it is online. Getting There Navigating Tokyo Station, however, is a different story. The station is massive and maze-like, and I found myself a bit lost trying to locate the correct exit. After asking around, I eventually found my way to the Marunouchi side, and once outside, the iconic view made the effort worthwhile. What to Expect The square opens up into a grand, open plaza with the stunning Tokyo Station façade as its centerpiece. It’s a popular photo spot, especially in the early morning or golden hour, when the lighting complements the historic architecture beautifully. Skyscrapers in the background add contrast and remind you you’re in one of Tokyo’s most upscale districts. Whether you’re a photographer, architecture enthusiast, or just looking for a moment of calm in the city, Marunouchi Square offers a lovely slice of Tokyo elegance. ⸻ Final Verdict A timeless photo spot in the heart of Tokyo. While getting there through the station can be confusing, the beauty of Marunouchi Square is more than worth the detour. #summervacay #MarunouchiSquare #TokyoStationView #HistoricalTokyo #MarunouchiVibes #TokyoArchitecture #LostInTokyo #RedBrickCharm #TokyoLandmarks #JapanPhotoSpots #MarunouchiMoments #TravelJapan #UrbanElegance #japan #japantrip #tokyo #tokyotrip

If you're in Tokyo, you absolutely have to visit Tokyo Station Marunouchi 🥹 Since my accommodation was near Nihonbashi, I walked there. :) First, I explored the underground Character Street at Tokyo Station. ✨ There's a Marunouchi sign on Character Street, so make sure to look for it carefully. I spent 40 minutes searching for it! Tokyo Station is quite large, so it takes about 10-15 minutes to walk from Character Street to Marunouchi. Marunouchi is a business district, so there were many locals heading home after work. Once you navigate through the crowd, you'll be greeted by the stunning view of Tokyo Station. ✨ ✨ My recommended time to visit is just before sunset, during the golden hour. The sunset over the plaza is absolutely beautiful. :)

#Overseas travel 1️⃣ Disneyland Disneyland is also great for night views. The Disney Castle Parade, which is only held at night, is pretty 2️⃣ Tokyo Station Marunouchi Tokyo Station Marunouchi is a classic face of Tokyo with an impressive old-fashioned red brick building. When you exit, you can feel the class of Tokyo in Marunouchi Street, where high-rise buildings and stylish shops are combined. There are many delicious restaurants and shopping spaces inside the station, so it was perfect for a quick stop or a leisurely stay. 3️⃣4️⃣ Shibuya Sky This is the most famous observatory in Tokyo! Tickets are released at 12 o'clock two weeks ago, but it takes less than 5 minutes for the sunset or night view, so it's a breeze. You can never get tickets on the same day, so make a reservation in advance! 5️⃣ Shibuya Scramble Square They say this is the road with the most people in Tokyo! There are many buildings right in front of you, so it's great for night views.

I don't recommend Nemuro Hanamaru, Sushiro is better
