Sakuradamon Gate

Perché vale la deviazione

The 1620s gate of Edo Castle where in 1860 the shogun's chief minister Ii Naosuke was assassinated in the snow.

Sakuradamon Gate is a historic site known for the assassination of Ii Naosuke, a pivotal event in Japanese history. The gate's architecture served as a defensive structure and has survived significant events like the 1923 earthquake.

  • 450 m

    Tokyo Metropolitan Police Headquarters Site

    Rebel troops occupied the police headquarters beside Sakuradamon early on February 26, temporarily neutralizing the civilian force expected to defend the capital. The police leadership rejected proposals for a direct armed counterattack, leaving the army to suppress its own mutiny.

    Tokyo Imperial Palace

    The Imperial Palace and its gardens in Chiyoda.

  • 750 m

    Hibiya Park

    Opened in 1903 as Japan's first Western-style modern urban park, Hibiya became a stage for concerts, demonstrations and mass politics.

  • 750 m

    National Diet Building

    The Lockheed scandal became national theater here when Marubeni executives testified before the House of Representatives Budget Committee in February and March 1976. Their denials about coded “peanuts” receipts were later judged to be false testimony, fixing the word “peanuts” in Japan’s political vocabulary as shorthand for covert money.

    Tokyo International Forum

    Rafael Viñoly's immense ship-like glass atrium occupies the former city-hall site and became a landmark of 1990s Tokyo architecture.

  • 1.0 km

    Sukiyabashi Bridge Monument

    This small monument recalls the bridge that carried travelers across Edo Castle's outer moat at the entrance to Ginza. The moat was filled and Sukiyabashi removed in 1958, turning a waterside gateway famous from the radio drama and film Kimi no Na wa into an ordinary patch of city ground.
