Jog around the circle: Tokyoites
love to jog around the Imperial
Palace, not least because the
route features gorgeous views
and few traffic lights. Visiting
runners are well served by the
local ‘running station’, while
cyclists can enjoy free bike rentals
on certain days for the Palace
Cycling Course.

Lunch under the blue sky: Marunouchi's diversity of restaurants is truly remarkable, so you'll
have no trouble finding a suitable place to rest your legs over lunch. On sunny days, why not
check out the open-air cafés at Ichigokan Square or the many inviting eateries along NakadoriAve such as Pagliaccio Marunouchi ( 3 on the map), which changes its menu every second
week so you'll never get bored.

and galleries, while the 1.2km
Naka-dori street features 15
sculptures and other pieces by

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

back out into the bustling city. Remember
to check out the koi carp in the pond too.

Take a terrace breather: For some extra recharging, visit the rose garden at Ichigokan Square
( 5 on the map), complete with a terrace café, or relax in the rooftop garden at Kitte from where
you can watch the bullet trains arrive and depart.
Related venue: 44. Kitte
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

Charge up for the day: Adventuring
on an empty stomach is no wise
choice, so head down to the ShinMaru building's basement floor where
you'll find Hokkaido milk producer
Machimura Farm's café ( 1 on the
map), which opens at 7.30am on
weekdays and serves tasty butter and
cheese toasties.

Although 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.

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

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…
