Not surprisingly (the
name Minato means port), this district borders the Sumida River and includes
Daiba, an ambitious project built on reclaimed land in Tokyo Bay complete
with exhibition centre, amusement parks and a beach. Minato is home to
numerous embassies, up-market shopping areas (isn't everywhere in Tokyo?),
trendy clubs, bars, restaurants, art galleries and the hotel and office
towers of Shiodome. |
