Mejiro, Residential district in Toshima-ku, Tokyo, Japan

The district transformed from agricultural land during the Meiji period into a residential area, marked by the establishment of educational institutions.

The neighborhood maintains multiple temples, shrines, and gardens that reflect Japanese traditions and provide spaces for community gatherings.

Mejiro Station on the JR East Yamanote Line connects residents to central Tokyo locations, with trains departing every few minutes.

The district takes its name from the Japanese white-eye bird, which inhabits the local gardens and parks throughout the seasons.
