The district's great entrance gate collapses in the Kantō earthquake of 1923 and is never raised again: today all that marks it is a stone post, on the line of the main street (Nakanochō-dōri) that the houses once faced.
The great entrance gate collapsed in the Kantō earthquake of 1923 and has not been rebuilt: what remains is the place name and the line of the main street, Nakanochō-dōri, that the houses faced. Nearest station: Minowa, on the Hibiya line.
ℹ️ None of what the anime draws is there on site. The district is still a red-light district and you go there quietly: no noisy groups, no photos towards the premises, and watch out for touts even during the day.
