Atago, Administrative district in Minato-ku, Japan.
Atago is a district in Minato-ku that features a small hill, which is the highest natural elevation point among Tokyo's 23 special wards. The neighborhood contains modern office buildings and residential areas that shape its urban character.
The district underwent significant changes in recent decades when major development projects replaced older structures and modernized the neighborhood. This transformation turned Atago from a traditional residential area into a modern, business-oriented district.
Students from the district attend designated public schools including Onarimon Elementary School and Onarimon Junior High School under Minato City Board of Education management.
The neighborhood is easily accessible by public transportation with good connections to nearby train stations. Visitors will find a mix of office spaces, retail areas, and restaurants for everyday needs.
The hill in this district, though modest in height, is a notable geographic feature that breaks up Tokyo's otherwise flat terrain. Several institutions and businesses have located themselves at this elevated spot to take advantage of the site.
