Time Out says

Completed in 1925, this imposing granite structure houses 80 paintings that depict the life and reign of the Meiji Emperor and make for a fascinating – if somewhat one-sided – look into one of the most dramatic periods in Japan's modern history.

What’s on

Tokyo Christmas Market

In Germany and many other parts of Europe, Christmas markets transform central city squares into charming, romantic destinations with decorations, festive lights, hot spiced wine, sweets and stalls selling local crafts. The Tokyo Christmas Market brings this same spirit to Japan, with a festive selection of food, drinks and European-style ornaments. There’s even a 14-metre-high Christmas pyramid installation brought over from a German village (the Christmas pyramid may be unfamiliar, but it actually has a history as old as the Christmas tree). Returning for the 10th time this holiday season, the Tokyo Christmas Market has become a familiar highlight of the city’s festive season calendar.Tickets can be purchased in advance online, which comes with a free mug. (Adult tickets only)
