Tennozu Isle

Tennozu Isle, a 200,000-square-meter island, was developed as a fort during the Edo period. Easily accessible from Haneda Airport via the Tokyo Monorail, it offers a waterfront location.

Encircled by Tokyo Bay, Tennozu Isle boasts boardwalks that serve as resting spots and multiple piers for enjoyment. The island is gaining recognition as a future hub for shipboard transit in the Tokyo area, providing a crucial link between Haneda Airport and the city center.

A variety of shops and office buildings are integrated within this area. Spacious restaurants and cafes line the canals, alongside The Galaxy Theatre, various art galleries, and event spaces. Tennozu Isle serves as a venue for open-air markets, art events, film locations, and more.
