Message from Tamra Bow

The Imperial Palace in Tokyo is a stunning blend of history and nature, right in the heart of the city.

While the palace itself is the Emperor’s official residence, the real magic is in its lush gardens and beautiful grounds.

You can’t get inside the palace, but you can wander around the East Gardens, or take a bike ride around the moat.

There's plenty of peaceful walking paths, traditional Japanese landscaping, and great views of the palace’s outer moats.

It’s a perfect spot to relax, take in some history, and escape the hustle and bustle of Tokyo.

Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!
