The garden at the Imperial Palace. Take a stroll through it before the palace itself opens.
It is also the best place to admire cherry trees in Tokyo.

The pearl of Tokyo is the Imperial Palace. This is the residence of the Head of State, which houses a complex of buildings and structures along with the surrounding canal and garden.
It is located on the territory of Edo Castle, built by the local feudal lord Dokan Ota in 1457.
Tokugawa Ieyasu (the first Tokugawa shogun) settled in the castle in 1590. Late Shoguns from the Tokugawa clan made the castle bigger and wider, and since 1637 it has become the largest in Japan. Until 1868, the official residence of the Japanese monarchs was in Kyoto.
During the Meiji Restoration of 1868, which eliminated the power of the Shoguns, the capital was moved to Tokyo, and the new residence of the Emperor was the Edo Castle, built between 1603 and 1651.
This is where the modern Imperial Palace is currently located.
The buildings preserved from the castle are declared a national treasure and are protected by the state, and the complex of the modern imperial palace was built in 1964-1968.

Kabuki is known to the world as a traditional Japanese theatre. Some interesting facts about this theater:
1) There are restaurants in the same building, because the performances take several hours.
(2) "Kabuki" means "song and dance".
3) All emotions are represented by the expression of the face.
4) The Kabuki Theatre was once a kind of middle-class newspaper. Intrigues and scandals were inflated by actors to global epic stories. Often the performances were held without a script ready in advance, and the main plot was formed as an improvisation.
5) Traditionally, women's roles are performed by men. In 1645, women were banned from playing in the theatres, although the priest's wife brought popularity to the Kabuki Theatre with her comic improvisations.
Be sure to visit this theater to see the Japanese theatrical customs and traditions!
