Dive in Tokyo - Season 2 Episode 13 Kabutocho - An Evolving Financial Hub
The Kabutocho district in central Tokyo has a long history as a financial hub. In the late 19th century, it became home to Japan's first bank and stock exchange, paving the way for an influx of securities firms and traders. At its peak in the 1980s, over 100 financial companies lined the streets, and it developed a reputation as the Wall Street of Japan. Recently it's been reinventing itself as a trendy neighborhood with new restaurants, bars and a boutique hotel. Join us as we dive into Kabutocho.
