There
are many governmental offices, including the Diet, Prime Ministar’s house, and
ministries, in the neighboring areas westwards from the Imperial Palace. Thy
have the buildings and facilities related to the local politics and the local governments at
Hirakawa-cho and Akasaka-mitsuike district. I visited there today.
Many
city governments have their offices in the Japan Municipal Building.
Various
information of the cities were displayed at the corner in the ground floor.
I
had a short visit to the office of Shizuoka City. The office is used as an
information center of the city in Tokyo. I saw various pamphlets in the office.
The office is also used as a station of the local politicians when they come to
Tokyo to talks with the central government, according to the office staff.
I
also found the displays of 47 prefectural governments along the walkways to the
Akasaka-mitsuke subway station. (see the top photo). They emphasized the local foods, tourism and
local football teams.
There
are many construction works in the area. The Prince Gallery Hotel is scheduled
to open in July. (see also the second photo from the top).
