Hotel Gajoen Tokyo · Hyakudan Kaidan
The 'dragon palace' — 99 lacquered steps and 1930s painted banquet rooms.
A designated cultural property inside a hotel: the Hyakudan Kaidan staircase and its seven banquet rooms, covered floor to ceiling in 1930s paintings, mother-of-pearl and carved wood. Exhibitions rotate; the building alone is worth the visit.
