The Ebisu and Hiroo area is one of Tokyo's most desirable, known for its upscale, international atmosphere and leafy streets. An interesting local fact is that the name "Ebisu" comes from one of the Seven Gods of Fortune, Ebisu, the god of fishermen and luck, reflecting the area's historical connection to the sea. The closest major landmark is the iconic Tokyo Tower, a symbol of the city's post-war rebirth, easily accessible from the neighborhood and offering panoramic views of the metropolis.
