Perie Chiba, which renovated and reopened in September 2017, is a beautiful station building!
To get to the station-side area of Perie Chiba, you can take the escalator from the 3rd floor, where the Chiba Station central ticket gate is located.
And, on the 5th floor of Perie Chiba, there is a rooftop garden called "Eki-ue Hiroba," where I found places to sit and take a break!
Many tables, sofas, and benches are set up.
You can enjoy the plants of each season in this open rooftop garden.
In winter, illuminations are lit up, so you can enjoy it in different ways depending on the season.
Also, there is a shop near the benches, so you can take a break while eating and drinking in the garden.
Please note that the opening hours vary depending on the time of year. Also, it may be closed depending on the weather.
In addition, the "Perie Chiba 6F Perie Terrace" on the floor above is also recommended, so be sure to check it out!
So, why not use it as a place to take a break and sit down around Chiba Station while shopping at Perie Chiba?
