Tokyo Cathedral St. Mary's Cathedral, completed in 1964, is a Catholic cathedral designed by the world-renowned architect Kenzo Tange. Tange is known for designing numerous iconic buildings, including the National Yoyogi Gymnasium and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. This cathedral stands as one of his masterpieces. The exterior features a beautiful stainless steel facade composed of graceful curves, while the interior is enveloped in a majestic atmosphere. The high ceiling and light streaming through the stained-glass windows create a mystical space. A pipe organ is installed within the cathedral, and concerts are regularly held. You can spend a truly rejuvenating time listening to its beautiful tones. Surrounded by lush greenery despite being in the heart of Tokyo, Tokyo Cathedral St. Mary's Cathedral is a recommended spot for those seeking a peaceful escape from the city's hustle and bustle. Photography is also permitted, allowing you to capture the beautiful architecture and the cathedral's interior. It's advisable to check the Mass schedule and event information beforehand.
