Roppongi Hills
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Roppongi Hills (六本木ヒルズ Roppongi Hiruzu) is a New Urban Centre and one of Japan's largest integrated property developments, located in the Roppongi district of Minato, Tokyo.
Constructed by building tycoon Minoru Mori, the mega-complex incorporates office space, apartments, shops, restaurants, cafés, movie theaters, a museum, a hotel, a major TV studio, an outdoor amphitheater, and a few parks. The centerpiece is the 54-story Mori Tower. Mori's stated vision was to build an integrated development where high-rise inner-urban communities allow people to live, work, play, and shop in proximity to eliminate commuting time. He argued that this would increase leisure time, quality of life, and benefit Japan's national competitiveness. Seventeen years after the design's initial conception, the complex opened to the public on April 25, 2003.
Tokyo Tower
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tokyo Tower (東京タワー Tōkyō tawā) is a communications and observation tower located in Shiba Park, Minato, Tokyo, Japan. At 333 metres (1,093 ft), it is the second-tallest artificial structure in Japan. The structure is an Eiffel Tower-inspired lattice tower that is painted white and international orange to comply with air safety regulations.
Built in 1958, the tower's main sources of revenue are tourism and antenna leasing. Over 150 million people have visited the tower since its opening. FootTown, a four-storey building located directly under the tower, houses museums, restaurants and shops. Departing from there, guests can visit two observation decks. The two-storey Main Observatory is located at 150 metres (490 ft), while the smaller Special Observatory reaches a height of 250 metres (820 ft).
The tower acts as a support structure for an antenna. Originally intended for television broadcasting, radio antennas were installed in 1961, but the tower is now used to broadcast signals for Japanese media outlets such as NHK, TBS and Fuji TV. Japan's planned digital television transition by July 2011 was problematic, however; Tokyo Tower's height (333 meters) was not high enough to adequately support complete terrestrial digital broadcasting to the area. A taller digital broadcasting tower, known as Tokyo Skytree, was completed on February 29, 2012.
Roppongi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Roppongi (六本木, literally six trees) is a district of Minato, Tokyo, Japan, famous as home to the rich Roppongi Hills area and an active night club scene. Many foreign embassies are located in Roppongi, and the night life is popular with locals and foreigners alike. It is in the southern portion of the Yamanote Line loop, south of Akasaka and north of Azabu.
History
The name Roppongi, which appears to have been coined around 1660, literally means six trees. Six very old and large zelkova trees used to mark the area; first three were cleared, and the last was destroyed during World War II. Another legend has it that the name comes from the fact that six daimyo lived nearby during the Edo period, each with the kanji character for tree or a kind of tree in their names. Roppongi was not extensively populated until after the Meiji Restoration, although the area was trafficked for centuries and served as the site of the cremation of Shogun Tokugawa Hidetada's wife in 1626.
In 1890, the Third Imperial Guard of the Imperial Japanese Army was moved to a site near Roppongi (now home to the Pacific bureau of Stars and Stripes). The influx of soldiers led to the area's rise as a nightlife district, briefly interrupted by the Great Kanto Earthquake which flattened the area in 1923. Roppongi was administratively part of Azabu Ward from 1878 to 1947.

After World War II, during which the area was again destroyed, this time by aerial bombing raids, the United States Army and Allied government officials occupied several facilities in the area, beginning Roppongi's reputation as a neighborhood with large numbers of non-Japanese. Several large US military installations were located in the nearby area, with Hardy Barracks probably the most significant (the US Embassy Housing Compound, Hardy Barracks Recreational Lodging, Stars and Stripes office and heliport are still there). Surrounding the military installations were many Japanese-owned restaurants, pool halls, bars, and brothels which catered to US military personnel but were also often frequented by Japanese customers.

Tokyo's Roppongi Hills shows Tokyo's cultural redevelopment
도시재생 모범사례 꼽히는 일본 롯폰기 문화 공간
Japan's capital city Tokyo is seeing massive urban redevelopment as the mega-city looks to become a more accessible and attractive place to live.
Our Won Jung-hwan reports.
As the 2020 Olympics approaches, Tokyo is seeing a construction boom. As well as sporting venues, large areas of the city are being redeveloped, with the Shibuya district alone having at least a dozen large-scale high-rises under construction.
According to a recent survey by Mori Building,,… around 75 large buildings across the city will be finished in the years leading up to the Games.
But Tokyo doesn't just want to add to its concrete jungle. It also wants to develop cultural areas to make the city a brighter place to live and visit.
Roppongi Hills is one such example,… as the area has gone through a massive change to attract a more diverse range of people than before.
Approximately 17 years after Roppongi Hills' official opening, the neighborhood is still a nightlife hotspot, but the area has also actively sought to rebrand itself as a cultural Mecca.
In the 1990s, Tokyo-based building tycoon, Minoru Mori, spearheaded the Roppongi Hills redevelopment in an attempt to build an integrated high-rise development in the center of the city that would combine residential, work, retail, and entertainment spaces.
Back in those days, there were just a lot of tall buildings,... but now the area has a harmony between each of the buildings, forming around art museums and natural parks.
People call it the Roppongi Art Triangle, where 3 major art museums, including the Mori Art Museum on 53rd floor of the Mori Tower, are within a short walk of each other, and provide discounts together.
In many respects, Tokyo's Roppongi Hills represents a new approach to urban life.
The area, which was once an enclave for Tokyo's ultra-rich,… now acts as a magnet for ordinary people looking to enjoy cultural activities.
The area was regarded as a place only for rich people,... but now the perception has changed. Everyone is welcome at this place, from kids to foreigners.
Major cities around the world can learn from Tokyo's urban development plans,... which have given parts of the city a fresh new image.

JAPAN - TOKYO FOR FREE: The Tour of Fortune 4/8 - Fukurokuju - Tenso - wealth health and longevity
Happiness, wealth, health and longevity! Discover here the fourth hidden sanctuary of the 7 GODS OF FORTUNE.
Tenso is a Shinto shrine, near the lively Roppongi Crossing, dedicated to Fukurokuju, patron of happiness, wealth, health and longevity. His name is in fact composed by happiness (FUKU), wealth (ROKU) and longevity (JU).
He is affectionately regarded as the God Inari (one of the main Shinto deity) by people working in commerce and the restaurant business.
The name Ryudo-Shinmei-gu inscribed on the large stone pillar means dragon light, because legend has it that a dragon flew from Edo Bay every night to set a votive light while the shrine was being founded.
