Marunouchi

Marunouchi was used to be a part of Tokyo Bay before Tokugawa Ieyasu came to Edo. He redeemed this area and, in 1592, by the expansion of Edo Castle, this part became a part of Edo Castle. Because it became inside of bailey, it called Okuruwa uchi, means inside of bailey, and the name changed eventually to Marunouchi. There are 24 Daimyo's houses, and government offices are located in this area.
