Azabu - A Tale of Slopes and Embassies (2x14)


:

This time we visit Azabu, an area to the west of Tokyo Tower that is famous for being home to many embassies. Its international character has roots in the mid-1800s, when the first US legation in Japan was opened at a 1,200-year-old local temple. We visit the Embassy of Finland and explore a nearby shopping district known for its handmade foods and crafts. As we stroll up and down the hills and through the valleys in between, we get a feel for the terrain and discover the neighborhood's charm.
