Planning notes for Tokyo
Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is located on the eastern coast of Honshu. Originally a fishing village known as Edo, the location became the seat of the Tokugawa shogunate in 1603. Following the Meiji Restoration in 1868, the city was renamed Tokyo and established as the imperial capital. The city's historical heritage is preserved in sites such as Senso-ji, a Buddhist temple in Asakusa founded in 628, and the Imperial Palace.
