The "Imperial Palace," located in the heart of Tokyo, is a symbolic spot of Japan built on the former site of Edo Castle. It is a space filled with tranquility and dignity, where lush nature and historic architecture coexist🌳✨.
The outer perimeter of the Imperial Palace is also popular as a beautiful running and walking course stretching about 5 km, where you can enjoy seasonal scenery in a quietness that feels unlike the city center🍂🌸. Especially during cherry blossom season and autumn foliage, the colors reflected in the moat are stunning, offering a soothing moment.
A recommended sightseeing spot is the "Imperial Palace East Gardens." This area is open to the public for free, allowing you to carefully explore Edo Castle’s stone walls, gardens, and historic gates🏯. The well-maintained Japanese gardens and the lawn area are perfect for relaxing and enjoying a peaceful time.
Also, the "Nijubashi Bridge" is a classic tourist attraction📸. The harmony of the bridge reflected on the water and the main gate of the Imperial Palace creates a picturesque scene. It is a popular photo spot among foreign tourists as well.
Access is very convenient, within walking distance from Tokyo Station and Otemachi Station🚶♀️. Why not spend a moment on your trip to reset your mind at the precious place "Imperial Palace," where you can feel both nature and history in the city center?
