I visited this cathedral in October 2008. The location is a bit off the beaten Tokyo track. But if you like modern architecture and/or are interested in Catholicism in Japan this is a nice place to go. Very beatiful in the sunshine.

10 minutes walk from Gokokuji Station on Yurakucho Subway Line, exit No.6.
15 minutes walk from Edogawabashi Station on Yurakucho Subway Line, exit No.1a.

Take Tokyo City Bus No.61 to Shinjuku Sta. from JR Mejiro Sta., or Tokyo City Bus heading for Nerimashakomae from JR Shinjuku Sta., get off at Chinzansomae stop. 1 minute walk from the stop.

Parking available.
