  • With Detailed Instructions, Maps and Travel Tips
    Maps and General Guide on Transportation (ver. July 29, 2016) Local Organizing Committee ICCOPT 2016 Tokyo Maps and General Guide on Transportation GRIPS, the National Art Center, Tokyo, and surrounding area The two closest stations to GRIPS are Nogizaka of Tokyo Metro Chiyoda line and Roppongi of Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line and Toei Oedo Line. Just follow the dotted lines in the map above. You can also reach the Main Gate of GRIPS through The National Art Center, Tokyo from Nogizaka. In that case, use the exit 6. (This route is not available on August 9th, Tuesday when NACT is closed.) Important Notice: 1. The Main Entrance of GRIPS is closed on August 7th, Sunday. Participants are asked to use South Gate and South Entrance. 2. Some sessions are held on the third floor of NACT. The Main Gate of NACT is just next to the Main Gate of GRIPS. So it is very easy to get there. (It takes just one minute or even less!) 2 Maps and General Guide on Transportation Access to GRIPS from Haneda Airport and Narita Airport We recommend you to purchase SUICA or PASMO at the first train station you get on a train. They are very popular rechargeable pre-paid e-money for moving and shopping. (Either one is fine; see the item 1 on the last page of this document.) From Narita Airport There are many ways to reach Tokyo and GRIPS from Narita. Narita is a bit far from Tokyo, so it should take between 90-120 minutes (or even more if you do not use neither Keisei Skyliner nor JR Narita Express.) 1.
