About this audio guide
This guide to AQUA CiTY Odaiba in Tokyo opens with the real Statue of Liberty's nine-month stay on this reclaimed patch of Tokyo Bay in 1998, on loan from Paris during a year of French culture in Japan, and the reaction when she had to go home. A permanent replica ended up standing here instead, facing the Rainbow Bridge, on land that had sat empty since Japan's bubble economy collapsed. Look for her out front before you head inside.
