Relax beside an urban forest: Although glass and steel predominate in Marunouchi, the lush greenery of the Imperial Palace is never more than a few steps away. Entering the grounds is unfortunately not possible, but the pleasant moat-side areas, the modern Wadakura Fountain Park and the palace’s spacious Outer Gardens (a favourite al fresco lunch spot for office workers) provide ample opportunities for relaxation. Related venue: 2. Wadakura Fountain Park

Sneak pastthe guards

Surveythe grounds

Entering through the Ote-mon gate, you’ll soon come across a square with three guardhouses. The largest of these, the Hyakunin-bansho, once housed a full one hundred loyal samurai tasked with protecting the shogun from his enemies. It’s far easier to slip by undetected these days…

Located above the Hakucho-bori moat, this observatory provides great views of both the lower gardens and the towers of

Marunouchi. It’s also a nice place to sit down for a short break, catch

your breath and enjoy the calm atmosphere.

Calm your spirits

End your stroll at the picturesque, traditional-style

Ninomaru garden. With pretty flowers, a bubbling waterfall and masterfully trimmed pine trees, this spot is perfect for taking a quiet moment before heading back out into the bustling city. Remember to check out the koi carp in the pond too.

Hang out on the lawnAlthough you wouldn’t be able to tell from their current state, the Honmaru lawns are where Edo Castle once stood. Nowadays, this spacious area is best suited for a quick summer day nap in the shade, after which you’ll be able to climb the nearby Tenshudai guard tower’s ruins with ease.
