State Guest House, Akasaka Palace
Built in 1909 as the Crown Prince's Palace, the State Guest House, Akasaka Palace is the only palace in Japan that was built in the neo-Baroque style. After World War II, it was extensively restored and remodeled in order to serve as a guest house for foreign dignitaries. In 1974, a new Japanese-style annex was constructed, and the State Guest House, Akasaka Palace began receiving distinguished foreign dignitaries ranging from monarchs, presidents, and prime ministers. It also serves as the venue for international conferences such as G7 summits. It underwent extensive repairs in 2009, and was subsequently designated as a national treasure.
