TOKYO

Many of the most famous educational institutions are situated in Tokyo. In addition to the Imperial University, there is the celebrated Waseda University, the Keio Gijuku, the Meiji Gakuin, the Aoyama Gakuin, and a large number of technical, normal, commercial and other colleges.

Tokyo was opened to foreign residence in 1870 and an arca of land at Tsukiji on the waterfront was set aside as a Foreign Settlement, which was largely taken advantage of by Christian Missionary bodies. With the passing of extra-territoriality, however, residence by foreigners in any part of the city became possible, and of late years many foreign firms have established offices in Tokyo.
