The area of Shinjuku's Hyakunincho is a dynamic and international neighborhood, known for its close proximity to the vibrant Koreatown around Shin-Okubo Station. An interesting historical fact is that the district's name, "Hyakunincho" (One Hundred People Town), originates from the Edo period when it was a settlement for one hundred guardsmen. The closest major landmark is the iconic Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building in Shinjuku, offering spectacular free observation decks with views of the city and, on clear days, Mount Fuji.
