From Akabanebashi Station, you can walk to Shiba Park and Tokyo Tower.
Shiba Park is a very large area, and this time we will introduce the No. 17 area of Shiba Park, which is located behind The Prince Park Tower Tokyo.
Near the park, there is "Benten-do," a Benzaiten (goddess of good fortune) shrine, which is one of the seven gods of good fortune in Minato-ku, and there is Benten Pond right next to it.
To get to Benten Pond, go out of the Akabanebashi Exit of Akabanebashi Station and follow Atago-dori Street near the Tokyo Tower entrance.
This is also a spot that served as a model for the Ukiyo-e (Japanese woodblock print) artwork "Shiba Benten Pond," making it a perfect place for a stroll.
It seems that there are carp in the relatively small Benten Pond, but I didn't see any when I visited.
It was Sunday, but there were few people passing by, and it had a quiet atmosphere.
There was a pergola next to Benten Pond where you can look up at Tokyo Tower!
There are benches for two people, making it a convenient space to take a break near Tokyo Tower.
If you go up the stairs from Benten Pond and walk towards Akabanebashi from the Tokyo Tower side, you'll find three benches for two people on a hill.
This is a spot where you can relax and rest, with hardly any people passing by ♪
The side of the bench has a distinctive design, and the backrest looks like a roll of carpet.
From this bench, you can relax while overlooking the Sakurada-dori Street.
By the way, Prince Shiba Park, which is located up the stairs from Benten Pond, was also wonderful ♪

Also, the benches at "Shiba Park Fitness Promenade," which is located nearby, are also recommended, so why not check them out too!?
So, why not use these spots as resting places with seating around Akabanebashi Station?
