Marunouchi Marunouchi is the area from Tokyo central station to the Imperial Palace. The main reason for visiting this area is the Imperial Palace. It is huge. From the Tayasumon Gate in the north to the south near Hibiya park is a good walk. Within the great moats of the Imperial Palace there is one thing missing though: a big imperial palace. The residence of the Emperor is there but it is small and you will hardly notice it. The walls, the gates and the many museums are the main attractions you are here for. To visit all of them you could easily spend a day. Furthermore this is a very green area: the lungs of the city.
