The Roppongi area is known for spots like Roppongi Hills, the National Art Center, and Tokyo Midtown (commonly known as Roppongi Midtown).

While there are glamorous and bustling spots popular for shopping and dating, there are also many places where you can enjoy a quiet date.

If you want to enjoy an adult date, choosing spots with a quiet atmosphere and beautiful night views, or special setups, is recommended.

When enjoying sightseeing, not having barrier-free access can hinder your plans.

Therefore, by using spots with comprehensive barrier-free access like the ones below, you can enjoy your date as planned!

2-1. Convenient and Enjoyable Even in the Rain! "Tokyo Midtown"

Tokyo Midtown (commonly known as Roppongi Midtown) is a mixed-use development built on the site of the former Defense Agency.

When Tokyo Midtown was established, it was during a time when Japan's economy was struggling.

Amidst this, it emerged as a stage for creating new value.

Tokyo Midtown features various shops and restaurants, spots to enjoy art, and lush green lawns and parks.

Events are frequently held on the lawn, ensuring a lively time for couples!

One of Tokyo Midtown's features is its direct connection to Roppongi Station on the Toei Oedo Line and Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line.

From Roppongi Station on the Toei Oedo Line, you can access smoothly by wheelchair, while from Roppongi Station on the Hibiya Line, there are steps, so it's recommended to use the elevator to the ground and move from the sidewalk on Gaien Higashi-dori.

Tokyo Midtown offers wheelchair rentals at two locations.

Additionally, there are four wheelchair-accessible restrooms and parking spaces for disabled persons, which are also appealing features.

2-2. Seasonal Spectacles: Cherry Blossoms in Spring, Illuminations in Winter

Roppongi is attractive for its ability to offer different landscapes each season.

In spring, you can view the night cherry blossoms at the Mori Garden in Roppongi Hills, enjoying the fantasy of the night cherry blossoms along with the murmuring of the Mori Pond.

At Sakura-zaka, born from the redevelopment of Roppongi 6-chome, about 75 Somei Yoshino cherry trees are planted, attracting many couples during the season.

In winter, illumination events are held at Tokyo Midtown, Roppongi Hills Keyakizaka, Ark Hills, and other places, making them popular date spots.

At Roppongi Hills Keyakizaka, approximately 900,000 LED lights illuminate nearly 400 meters, creating a breathtaking scene.

It's famous for being a spot where you can take photos that include both the Keyakizaka illumination and Tokyo Tower, making it great for social media.
