The monorail line, essential for sightseeing in the bay area, Tokyo.
Yurikamome is the name of the monorail line.
The Yurikamome Line is operated by Yurikamome Inc. and runs from Shimbashi Station in Tokyo’s Minato Ward to Toyosu Station in Koto Ward.
Opened in 1995, the line connects Odaiba and other seaside areas with central Tokyo, and is used by many people on weekends.
One of the main features of the line is that it is unmanned, and there is no driver or conductor on board during operation. Because there is no driver’s seat, you can enjoy the view, so we hope you will enjoy it when you get on the train.
The main landmark among the stations where Yurikamome stops.
Odaiba(お台場)
Odaiba, part of Tokyo’s Minato Ward, is a fairly well developed area of Tokyo with shopping centers, residential areas, and corporate offices. The Fuji Television building, with its distinctive sphere, has become one of the landmarks of the area. A huge shopping mall with restaurants and commercial facilities such as Venus Fort and Palette Town is another element that makes Odaiba attractive.Odaiba can be accessed from Daiba Station or Odaiba Kaihin Park. These two stations surround both sides of the Odaiba area, so it’s best to use different stations depending on where you want to go.
Shijō-mae(市場前)
Toyosu Market is a public wholesale market that opened in 2018 after being relocated from Tsukiji Market, the “kitchen” of Tokyo. This station is the closest to the Toyosu Market.In addition to visiting the market, there are many restaurants that use the freshest ingredients, so be sure to visit for breakfast or lunch.
To enjoy the cityscape of Tokyo
The view from Yurikamome is very beautiful. From inside the Yurikamome train, which runs above the ground in the bay area, a well-developed area, you can see the beautiful ocean and cityscape. The view from the Rainbow Bridge that you pass on the way is a must-see!
