  • State Guest House
    A Brief History of the Akasaka State Guest House The Akasaka State Guest House, since opening in 1974, continues to provide accom- modation for state and official guests of the Japanese government, including monarchs, presidents and prime ministers from countries all over the world. It serves as a splendid stage for diplomatic activities, such as welcoming ceremonies, and meetings and receptions attended by leading figures in the political, business and academic circles. It has also functioned as a venue for such important international conferences as the Tokyo G7 Summit meetings and the Japan-ASEAN Commemorative Summit of 2003. The Akasaka State Guest House was constructed originally as the Crown Prince`s Palace. Building started in 1899, just 31 years after the end of feudalism in Japan, and the Palace was completed in 1909. The site chosen for the Palace was a part of the Edo (present day Tokyo) mansion of the Kishu Tokugawa family. This was an important site, since the Kishu Tokugawa family was one of the three cadet branches of the ruling Tokugawa Shogunate, and thus one of the most powerful feudal lords in Japan. The building itself is the only neo-Baroque European-style palace in Japan. It is constructed of brick, around a steel frame, on three floors, two above and one below ground, and is both earthquake and fire resistant. It was built by the leading Japanese architects and craftsmen of the Meiji period (1867 – 1926), under the overall direction of Dr. Tokuma Katayama (1854 – 1917), a famous Meiji architect who was significant in State Guest House introducing Western, and particularly French architecture into Japan.
