Tokyo Landsat Image. A guided tour:
- The green circle in the centre is the Kokyo (Imperial Palace). The little gray ball in the middle is the palace itself: you can also barely see the Budokan at the top of the palace grounds.
- At the bottom of the photo, on the bay, Tokyo International Airport. The third runway was under construction at the time (or maybe it's just discolored).
- The large artificial islands in the bay near central Tokyo is Odaiba.
- The green blotches west of the Kokyo are the Akasaka Palace and Jingu Park: the big blob far to the west is Yoyogi Park.
- The black spot to the north of Yoyogi Park is central Shinjuku.
- The river on the south side of the photo is the Tama River, separating Tokyo from Kanagawa Prefecture.
- The second river due east of the Palace is the Arakawa, separating Tokyo from Chiba Prefecture.
- The northwestern corner of the map is in Saitama Prefecture, I think (but it's hard to tell exactly where Saitama begins).
