The area
Address
Neighborhood: Ginza / Tokyo Nihonbashi
Ginza is famous for being a trendy hotspot, but it's also a downtown area with shops that were founded over a hundred years ago. Department stores and luxury boutiques line the route from Nihonbashi to Ginza. It's a long established tradition to shop and stroll while the road is closed to traffic. Luxury hotels, world class cuisine from talented chefs, and a collection of glitzy clubs will make this area popular with anyone looking for a night out.

Here you will find many interesting things about the development of money in Japan from time to time, and you can see the original form of their old coins are known as real Wado Kaichin, Oban and Koban.

It is a valuable building historically.
The person who designed it is a person same as the person who designed Tokyo Station.
His name is Mr.Kingo Tatsuno!

The old building was completed in 1896 and is a good example of Meiji Architecture, built by the same architect who did the design of Tokyo Station, a masterpiece. When it was opened, this building was among the first to boast of modern amenities, like flush toilets and elevators.
When you think of the wealth the BOJ controls, the building symbolizing that wealth is a worthy visit if you are in the area.

The Bank of Japan building is one of the architectural monuments worth visiting. It houses Japan's central bank.

This historical building is not a must-see but a fine example of Meiji era architecture in a neo-baroque style. It was built in 1896.

A very high end bank that is very friendly and helpful to English speaking people. Probably other languages as well. Performed minor banking procedures to help with travel. That's about it! Very convenient.
