About Venue
About Venue and Getting There
Tokyo, located in Japan’s Kanto region, is the nation’s capital and a global city known for its seamless blend of tradition and innovation. From the historic charm of Asakusa and the majestic Meiji Shrine to the neon-lit districts of Shinjuku and Shibuya, Tokyo offers an unmatched cultural and urban experience. The city is a world leader in fashion, technology, and cuisine, with everything from Michelin-starred sushi to cozy ramen shops lining its bustling streets. Tokyo’s extensive and efficient public transportation network including the Tokyo Metro, Toei Subway, and JR Yama note Line ensures smooth access to its countless districts and attractions.
Getting to Tokyo by Air:
Tokyo is served by two major international airports: Narita International Airport (NRT) and Haneda Airport (HND). Haneda, located closer to the city center (about 20 km), handles
both domestic and international flights and is known for its convenience and speed. Narita, approximately 60 km from central Tokyo, connects with cities across Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Both airports are well-linked to Tokyo via express trains like the Narita Express and Tokyo Monorail, making travel to the heart of the city fast and efficient.
