Too Many People in Tokyo, I Might Skip Next Time! (2)😓

In 1908, construction began on Tokyo Station, which served as the gateway to Tokyo. 🍃🌸 In 1914, the station building, a three - story reinforced - concrete structure with red bricks and spanning 335 meters in length, was completed. 🌟The front of the building featured a royal - family - dedicated entrance, with the southern dome serving as the boarding point and the northern dome as the exit. 🍃🌸A spacious plaza was also created in front of the station. It is said that over 900,000 red bricks were used to decorate the exterior walls. Over the past century, the station's iconic domes and the third - floor portion of the exterior walls have been damaged by wars and natural disasters. 🌟After the war, due to severe financial constraints, the station could not be fully reconstructed. 🍃🌸 Instead, an emergency repair project was carried out on the remaining two - story structure, resulting in a pyramidal - shaped roof. In 2003, the station building was designated as an important cultural property of the nation, and restoration work began in 2007. 🌟 #Tokyo 🌟
