Classic Spots for Pre-Wedding Photography in Marunouchi*
When it comes to classic spots for pre-wedding photography in Tokyo Station and Marunouchi, you can't miss the 【Wadakurabori】.
This is the gazebo made of stone adjacent to Wadakurabubori Park, located in one corner of the Imperial Palace Outer Garden.
(You will definitely encounter it on your way to the Imperial Palace from Tokyo Station♩)
The official name is Wadakura Gate Guardhouse Ruins. Originally, there was a wall of Edo Castle, but only the gate portion was left in this form.
Despite its small size, the solid construction and the atmosphere of the weathered stone walls exude a classical elegance.
When photographed from the side with the traffic light, the Japan Life Marunouchi Garden Tower appears to the right and the Palace Hotel to the left, making it a famous view as well♡
Swans occasionally fly by too♩
Changing Depending on Angle and Time*
The atmosphere of location shooting at Wadakurabori changes depending on the angle and time.
The most popular time for photography is at night, after it gets dark.
The gazebo's ceiling is illuminated, so combined with the surrounding night view, you can capture romantic photos that scream Marunouchi pre-wedding!♡
But of course, photos taken during the bright hours are beautiful too. The blue sky and white clouds are vividly highlighted, creating a bright and cheerful feeling.
The above and below photos have almost the same composition, yet both are charming.
Here are photos taken during sunset. The slightly pinkish hues are lovely♡
Wadakurabori is such a picturesque location that you can't help but think, "I want to shoot in the morning, evening, and night—I want to stay here all day!"
