JAPAN TRIP (27)

TOKYO . 3-1-2025 . FRIDAY  


Breakfast and @ Floor Lobby ..

Walked to Shinagawa Station from hotel.  

From there by train to Tokyo station.  

And a 25-min walk to Palace from Station.


Visited IMPERIAL PALACE.  

The Residence of Japan’s Imperial Family.

It is worth visiting for those interested in Japanese history & architecture.  

Located in a meticulously kept gardens area surrounded by moats and massive stone walls in the center of Tokyo City, a short walk from Tokyo Station.

These links provide detail study on Palace.

We had been disappointed because of access to inner palace is allowed only two days a year.  Clicks of the outer Palace and surrounding areas shared here.

We at outside IMPERIAL PALACE.

Tokyo Station is the largest and busiest train terminal in Japan. More than 4,000 trains depart the station (28 platforms) each day, providing transportation for over 460,000 passengers.

This link provides an in-depth inputs on station. Very interesting.
