Tokyo/Chiyoda - Wikitravel (2739 words) |
 | Tokyo's Chiyoda (千代田)[1] ward is the center of the city and in many ways the center of all Japan. |
 | Note that the Shinkansen will drop you off on the Yaesu side, which exits onto Chuo; to get to Chiyoda, you want to cross over to the Marunouchi side, which is something of a sight in itself as it reflects the station's original World War I-era architecture. |
 | Albeit, since most of central Chiyoda ward is offices buildings, it is virtually lifeless after sundown and completely dead past midnight as most of the population clears out. |
