Official Residence of the President of the House of Councillors, Government building and official residence in Nagatachō, Japan
The Official Residence of the President of the House of Councillors is located in central Tokyo and serves as both office and home for the leader of Japan's upper legislative chamber. The building contains spaces for official meetings, day-to-day administration, and formal receptions.
The residence was established in 1947 following Japan's postwar legislative reforms that created the modern House of Councillors. This change was part of broader restructuring that reshaped the nation's governmental framework after World War II.
The residence exemplifies the Japanese governmental structure where leaders maintain dedicated spaces for both administrative duties and formal diplomatic receptions.
The building is located in an accessible area of the government district surrounded by other important institutions. Keep in mind that this is an active administrative building and access may be limited to official purposes.
The residence maintains direct coordination with the National Police Agency for security measures during parliamentary sessions and official functions.
