🌹 Akasaka 💎 Stroll Through Tokyo's Premier Luxury District 🔝

Akasaka is one of the famous affluent districts in Minato Ward, known for its luxury and heritage. This area is home to numerous high-end hotels, restaurants, brand stores, Tokyo's oldest shrine, and Tokyo's Versailles—Akasaka Palace. This district is close to Roppongi and Azabu Juban (home of Usagi Tsukino), so it's recommended to plan a trip that includes these areas to experience the atmosphere of Tokyo's top affluent districts. Recommended Akasaka check-in spots: ⛩️ Hie Shrine: A shrine built in the 10th century and the main venue for the Sanno Festival. This shrine is located on a small hill with a significant elevation change, and with its large red lanterns hanging high, it's especially photogenic in the evening. I have a separate note introducing the Sanno Festival at Hie Shrine; if interested, you can check it out. 🌟 Akasaka Palace: The Versailles of Tokyo. This luxurious building was constructed in 1909 for the crown prince at the time and is now a famous guesthouse open to the public when there are no tasks. Admission fees vary, with the highest being 2000 yen. Some facilities require advance reservations. ⛩️ Toyokawa Inari Tokyo Betsuin: Inari is the god of business, symbolized by foxes. This shrine is characterized by numerous fox statues. 🌟 Akasaka Sacas: A comprehensive facility centered around the Akasaka Biz Tower Building, which is directly connected to Akasaka Station, and the TBS Broadcasting Center. #JapanTravel #TokyoGuide #TokyoTravel
