Exploring the Refurbished Tokyo Station (2012)
Christopher McLeanWith it's newly refurbished iconic red brick building, Tokyo's rebuilt JR station could be argued to be the face of Tokyo Proper.
Avec plus de 3 000 trains qui transitent chaque jour, la gare de Tokyo est la gare la plus fréquentée du Japon. Elle est la cinquième plus fréquentée en termes de passagers et sert même de plaque tournante pour de nombreuses lignes régionales de banlieue ainsi que pour le réseau de métro de Tokyo. La station couvre une telle superficie qu’elle est divisée en deux parties : Marunouchi et Yaesu.
La station d'origine a été ouverte en 1914, alors avec 4 voies. Le bâtiment Marunouchi alors construit avec ses briques rouges caractéristiques forme encore aujourd'hui le cœur de la partie ouest, bien que certaines parties aient été détruites pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et reconstruites plus tard. Le bâtiment Yaesu a été ouvert en 1929, mais a été gravement endommagé par un incendie et agrandi au cours des années suivantes. Avec l'ouverture de la première ligne Shinkansen en 1964, la station a été agrandie en conséquence et les voies correspondantes ont été ajoutées.
Il y a de nombreux magasins, dépanneurs, cafés et boutiques de souvenirs dans la gare. Dans le même temps, la gare de Tokyo est accessible à pied depuis la gare d'Otemachi. En plus de 25 voies ferrées et de diverses compagnies ferroviaires telles que les chemins de fer japonais et le métro de Tokyo, la gare de Tokyo possède également une gare routière appelée Yaesu South Exit Highway Bus Terminal, d'où partent un grand nombre de bus locaux et longue distance.
These two dome entrances on the west Marunouchi side feature part original plaster, reinforced and restored alongside relief work completed in the 2012 renovation. Also look out for the eight eagles underneath the dome, and eight Zodiac animals in the surrounding artwork.
Designed by architect Tatsuno Kingo, the brick exterior of Tokyo Station was a restrained celebration of the Russo-Japanese War’s costly victory. It has survived bombings from 1945 and seen the assassination of two Japanese prime ministers.
The Tōkaidō (Osaka), Tōhoku (Shin-Aomori), Jōetsu(Niigata) and Nagano Shinkansen bullet train as well as the Hikari and Kodama bullet trains can be found at Tokyo Station.
