Tochomae

Tochomae Station lies on the Toei Oedo Line in Nishi (West) Shinjuku of the Shinjuku Ward of Tokyo. A small station in the middle of the skyscrapers of West Shinjuku, it is connected to the large Shinjuku Station by means of an underground passageway and shopping malls.

Right outside Tochomae Station is Shinjuku Central Park . This small park, located behind Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, is surrounded by the tall buildings of Nishi Shinjuku. The layout of Shinjuku Central Park is very simple, and compared to other parks of Tokyo it has very few trees. Still, this small park is very popular with the office workers of the surrounding buildings, who come here to spend their lunch time.
