Hongō

The neighborhood extends across central Tokyo with numerous university buildings, research centers, and academic facilities connected by tree-lined streets.

In 1947, Hongō merged with Koishikawa ward to establish the current Bunkyō district, marking a substantial administrative reorganization in Tokyo.

The University of Tokyo main campus influences the neighborhood with student activities, research presentations, and educational programs throughout the academic year.

Hongō-sanchōme Station connects passengers through the Marunouchi and Toei Oedo lines, providing direct access to multiple Tokyo districts.

The neighborhood contains multiple university cafeterias that serve traditional Japanese meals at reduced prices to both students and local residents.
