2-1. Conveniently Connected to the Station, Enjoyable Even in the Rain! "Tokyo Midtown"

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

It was created as a stage for new value creation.

Events are frequently held on the lawn, ensuring couples will have a great time!

A key feature of Tokyo Midtown is its direct connection to Roppongi Station via the Toei Oedo Line and Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line.

Wheelchair access is smooth from Roppongi Station on the Toei Oedo Line, while there are steps from Roppongi Station on the Hibiya Line, so it is recommended to use the elevator to ground level and move from the sidewalk on Gaien East Dori.

Tokyo Midtown offers wheelchair rentals at two locations.

Additionally, there are four wheelchair-accessible restrooms and parking spaces for people with disabilities, which is also appealing.
