Description Extraordinary is a word that epitomises Tokyo. No other city in the world can match its many contradictory characteristics, most evident in its wholehearted embrace of both innovation and tradition.
Wildly imaginative fashion and astonishingly advanced technology fill the high streets, yet a traditional etiquette pervades everyday life. Tokyo?Ђ™s chic citizens appear voraciously acquisitive - you?Ђ™ll find a million shops in the streets, skyscrapers and subterranean malls - yet there are many opportunities to commune with nature here.
Of Tokyo?Ђ™s key business districts, 400-year-old Nihonbashi, home to Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo, is the only one that retains a sense of old-world charm, reflecting the vibrant urban culture of this castle town. Known as the ?Ђ?Centre of Japan?Ђќ since the Edo era, our neighbourhood has long been the point of origin for all roads in the country. Today, Nihonbashi remains ideally located, making it convenient to go anywhere from our hotel.
For those wanting to bring a piece of Japan back home with them, Nihonbashi has countless options as visitors can browse through the area?Ђ™s centuries-old shops for traditional gifts or visit beautiful boutiques in search of the latest in designer goods.
Likewise, many of Tokyos most celebrated Japanese restaurants are located here. Our Concierges will be delighted to recommend fine dining establishments within easy walking distance or within an approximate one-fare taxi ride from the hotel.
From unique cultural experiences to culinary adventures and historical exploration, Nihonbashi and all of Tokyo offer so much to see and do, you just might find yourself returning again and again. And each time you do, we will be delighted to offer you rare glimpses into the unique spirit of old Edo and help deepen your sensory experience of traditional Japan.
