Hanzomon, a town where Japan’s important institutions gather

Andaze’s office is located in Hanzomon, Chiyoda Ward, in the heart of Tokyo. The name of the station comes from “Hanzomon,” one of the gates surrounding the Imperial Palace where the emperor lives. The Indian Embassy, the Diet Building, and the Prime Minister’s official residence are also within walking distance.

The Hanzomon area is also famous as a power spot.

The Imperial Palace, built on the site of the former Edo Castle, was meticulously designed based on Feng Shui and is a place of universal power. It is said that energy called “Dragon Vein” flows from Mount Fuji to the Imperial Palace, and the final point is the Hanzomon area. The Hanzomon area is the final point of the “Dragon Vein,” which flows from Mt. Fuji to the Imperial Palace, and is said to be filled with the strongest energy, especially on the Hanzomon side where only the emperor’s family enters and exits. From a feng shui perspective, the area around the office is a perfect location.
