Walk with me:
The Road to Mitsubishi Ichigokan July 16, 2022 The Marunouchi area is probably the most cosmopolitan office and shopping district in Tokyo, or Japan for that matter, and I have likened it to our Makati central business district. When the opportunity to spend a Saturday afternoon at a museum in Marunouchi came along, I was all smiles imagining the airy feeling that I get every time I traverse those wide streets branching out of Tokyo Station. This area exudes charm, history, romance, sophistication. There’s just no other place like it in Japan. The way to Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum must be easy…or, so I thought! Its being in the compound of the Marunouchi Brick Square got me thinking it should be really quick to find it. There’s a pocket park with a rose garden, and it’s a favorite spot for coffee or gelato break for me and my friends!
