El Edo-Tokyo Museum recorre la transformación de la ciudad desde el periodo Edo hasta el presente mediante reconstrucciones a tamaño real, detalladas maquetas y objetos de la vida cotidiana. Su emblemática Exposición permanente ocupa dos plantas y recibe a los visitantes con una réplica a tamaño real del puente Nihonbashi, antes de conducirlos por Edo Zone y Tokyo Zone. El museo reabrió sus puertas el 31 de marzo de 2026, tras permanecer cerrado casi cuatro años para acometer su primera gran renovación desde su inauguración en 1993. El diseño espacial estuvo supervisado por el arquitecto Shohei Shigematsu.
