Highlights

Point 1

A Building Formerly Used as a Post Office

While retaining the remnants of the former Tokyo Central Post Office, which was built in the 1930s, KITTE has been reborn as a modern complex facility with designs of Showa modernism seen in some places. The director's room on the fourth floor uses materials from that time, such as the floor and glass windows, and some parts have been reproduced. This room has a nostalgic atmosphere and is equipped with a desk and chair, still functioning as a space where you can write a letter while thinking of someone. Why not try writing a letter to someone special when visiting for shopping or sightseeing?

On the 5th and 6th floors of the building, there are 15 restaurants where you can experience a variety of foods, including dishes that make use of specialty ingredients from all over Japan. Most of the restaurants are open from lunchtime to dinner, so you can stop by anytime. From casual dining to bars, there is something for every occasion.
