Shiodome (汐留) is a place in Minato, Tokyo. It is adjacent to Shinbashi to the north (although some times Shiodome is regarded as part of Shinbashi), the Hamarikyu Gardens to the west, Takeshiba to the south and Higashishinbashi to the west.
Shiodome was formerly the site of Japan's railway terminal, it was redeveloped in 1995. The original Shimbashi Station that was demolished in 1914 was rebuilt in the original design and is today a museum. The rest of the Shiodome area was developed into modern skyscrapers.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
