Mitsui Outlet Park Kisarazu: Only an Hour Away From Tokyo! Stores, Restaurants, Facilities, and More
Tennozu is a town that is currently garnering attention as a new art spot in Tokyo. Tennozu is a reclaimed island facing a canal. During the Edo period, the sandbar in Tokyo Bay was reclaimed, and after the war it became a logistics hub with rows of warehouses. After that, high-rise office buildings...
Tennoz is easily accessible from Tokyo Station in about 15 minutes by train and Haneda Airport via a single monorail stop, making it a recommended area for travelers both as an accommodation area for tourists in Tokyo and as a final stop before departing from Japan.
It's a compact city, so you can get around it in half a day. If you have some extra time to spare while sightseeing in Tokyo, why not make the most of this unique area where you can enjoy both the waterfront and art?
First, let me introduce the location of Tennozu.
Located on the east side of Tokyo, it is very close to major stations and tourist attractions, about 15 minutes by train from Tokyo Station, about 20 minutes by monorail from Haneda Airport, about 30 minutes by train from Toyosu Market, and about 45 minutes by train to Tokyo Disneyland. It is a peaceful town different from the downtown area, so if you prefer a relaxed place to stay, it is also recommended as a base for sightseeing.
There are two stations that provide access to the Tennozu area.
The first one is Tennozu Isle Station on the Rinkai Line.
The Rinkai Line has direct lines from major stations such as Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, and Shibuya, making it convenient for traveling from downtown Tokyo to Tennozu.
The second is the Tokyo Monorail's Tennozu Isle Station.
This is a direct line from Hamamatsucho Station, which is connected to the JR Yamanote Line and the Toei Oedo Line/Asakusa Line, to Haneda Airport. If you are using Haneda Airport, please try it. By the way, please note that the limited express train called the Airport Rapid does not stop at Tennozu Isle Station.
There are three entrances and exits at Tennozu Isle Station on the Rinkai Line. The distance between each entrance is not that far, but please use the one that suits your destination.
When you arrive at the platform at Tennozu Isle Station, head in the direction of the yellow "Ticket Gate" sign.
There is only one ticket gate, so no matter which exit you exit from, as long as you get here it will be fine.
Follow the signs to Exit A, B, or C depending on your destination.
To transfer from the Rinkai Line's Tennozu Isle Station to the Tokyo Monorail's Tennozu Isle Station, head to Exit A of the Rinkai Line's Tennozu Isle Station.
After exiting the ticket gate, go right and take the escalator or stairs to go outside, then go left and there you will come to a second escalator, use that to go up to ground level.
I was able to exit onto the ground from Exit A.
Once you reach ground level, you will see Tokyo Monorail Tennozu Isle Station on your right. Follow the signs.
Continue towards the large building with JTB written on it. Just before that, you will see the expressway and monorail tracks, so use them as landmarks.
There is a crosswalk under the expressway. Follow the "Tokyo Monorail" sign in the distance.
Once you cross the crosswalk, you will arrive at Tokyo Monorail Tennozu Isle Station!
There are two ticket gates at the Tokyo Monorail "Tennozu Isle Station." They are located at both ends of the platform, so choose the exit that best suits your destination.
You can transfer to the Rinkai Line from either the Central Exit or the South Exit, but the distance is shorter if you go via the South Exit. It takes about 5 minutes to transfer.
If you go via the Central Exit, you can transfer via a barrier-free route using elevators, so this is recommended for those in wheelchairs, with strollers, or with large luggage. However, since the distance is long, you should allow about 10 minutes for the transfer.
When you arrive at the platform at Tennozu Isle Station, follow the signs that say South Exit.
Head to the very end of the platform.
As soon as you exit the ticket gate at the end of the platform, you will see an escalator. Take the escalator and go down.
When you get off the escalator and reach ground level, there is a crosswalk under the overpass on the right hand side. Cross the crosswalk facing in the same direction as the station exit. Once you have crossed the crosswalk, look for the blue sign for Tennozu Isle Station on the Rinkai Line.
Follow the blue signs and you will see a brick sidewalk and a train icon.
You will arrive at the Rinkai Line entrance. The ticket gates are underground, so follow the signs to the basement.
When you arrive at the platform at Tennozu Isle Station, follow the signs that say "Central Exit."
When you exit the Central Gate, you will arrive at a plaza-like space. If you want to take the barrier-free route to the Rinkai Line, head left. By the way, if you head to the right, you will be connected to a commercial facility called Seafort Square.
There is a map available, so please refer to it. It is a straight road, but you will pass through buildings and commercial facilities, so be sure not to miss the signs.
Turn right at the ticket gate and go straight down the corridor lined with artwork.
When you see the sign that says Sphere Tower Tennozu, head straight down.
Once you reach the first floor, follow the arrow and go right through the door.
Once you exit the door, follow the signs and turn left.
Go through the passageway inside the shopping center. Make sure you don't miss the guide signs and just follow the straight path.
When you reach the Anytime Fitness store, cross the footbridge ahead.
Once you have crossed the footbridge, go straight through the building.
Once you leave the building, you will come to a footbridge that connects to the Rinkai Line. Follow the signs and take the elevator down to Tennozu Isle Station on the Rinkai Line!
The Tennozu area is a compact city surrounded by canals. Even if you end up at the wrong exit, it's not that far away, so just stay calm and follow the signs and guides until you reach your destination.
We hope that your transfers at Tennozu and your stroll around the area will be smooth and enjoyable!

Tennoz Isle is an "island" surrounded by canals on all sides. Since the island was developed as an art island from the beginning, there are theaters and art halls, and the townscape has an artistic feel to it. Since its establishment, our association has set the goal of increasing awareness of Tennoz Isle and creating excitement in the run-up to the Tokyo 2020 Games, and has undertaken various initiatives such as the Tennoz Canal Fes and the Tennoz Art Festival. Our next goal is to turn Tennoz Isle into a tourist destination, and we are working on further refining the existing content. Furthermore, we are developing an art tour to sell the artworks that we have been installing as local tourism products. Creating the function of a tourist information center that receives visiting tourists. Through these initiatives, we aim to become a new urban tourist destination in Tokyo.
