Why Visit Roppongi

3 REASONS TO COME

Art In Walking Distance

The National Art Center, Mori Art Museum, Suntory Museum of Art, and 21_21 Design Sight make Roppongi one of Tokyo’s easiest art walks.

Tokyo From Above

Roppongi Hills and Tokyo City View turn the district into a skyline stop, especially when the city lights begin to switch on.

Easy Evening Finish

Gardens, polished malls, late-night noodles, steak, and izakaya stops let you finish the route without a complicated transfer.
