Architecture in Tokyo
This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article "Architecture_in_Tokyo".

Architecture in Tokyo has largely been shaped by Tokyo's history. Twice in recent history has the metropolis been left in ruins: first in the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake and later after extensive firebombing in World War II.¹ Because of this, Tokyo's current urban landscape is one of modern and contemporary architecture, and older buildings are scarce.¹

Notable buildings in the metropolis include:

• Tokyo Tower
• Rainbow Bridge
• National Diet Building
• Yoyogi National Gymnasium
• Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building
• Tokyo Big Sight
• Asahi Beer Hall by Philippe Starck
• Tokyo Station red brick building
• Tokyo International Forum
• Roppongi Hills
