There isn't much to see here. You wouldn't take long visiting here. It will be good to put it together with visiting the imperial palace area. This attraction is just not enough to be worth your trip.

Very nicely done, very beautiful station. It wasn't quite complete, but 98% when we visited in April 2013. Certainly the grand dame of all stations. Yes it is crowded, I think they list 1.6 million a day pass thru. Interestingly no longet Tokyo's busiest. Shinjuku station list 2 mil. a day passing thru. Thankfully it is very big, way more...

This Is the Center of all Tokyo. It was renovated close to its original design just recently. The 19th century (or early 20th) red brick building with a dome in the center reminds you of the days Japan was trying so hard to catch up with the Western world.

We made a special trip to the Tokyo station to watch the bullet train cleaning/changeover. A whole staff is lined up in spiffy uniforms to greet (bow to) exiting passengers, then they swoop in and flip the seats to the reverse direction, vacuum, dust and clear the cars - all in three minutes. Everyone has one special duty. This was... More

As a resident, I don't really see this place as a tourist attraction. Since the refurbishment is over, the Marunouchi exit looks different but otherwise it remains the same.

Remodeled station, made to look like the station built 87 years ago. Very convenient and has many shopping opportunities. Can be a destination. Put it on your to-see list.

When I read guide books and reviews the writers made me feel really apprehensive about using Tokyo's vast rail network. But it is really good! It is fast, frequent, clean and cheap, and with a bit of common sense you can work out how to get anywhere. Just a couple of tips ... There are two systems, the JR lines... More

Even if you're not using Tokyo Station as a hub, it's worth noting for its newly restored and beautifully lit exterior. A superb example of Taisho Period architecture, it exemplifies the era's modern architecture, an interesting hybrid of European and Japanese styles. Inside, it's always crowded, sometimes chaotically so. The Japanese tend not to duck and dodge oncomers, so you'll... More

Tokyo Station is the ground transportation hub of Tokyo. It provides easy access to the bullet trains that can get you just about anywhere in Japan. Most JR line trains that serve Tokyo also converge on Tokyo station. The Narita Express Train can wisk you the airport in just under an hour. The station also features tons of shops and... More
