Minato (港区, Minato-ku) is a special ward in Tokyo, Japan. It is also called Minato City in English.

It was formed in 1947 as a merger of Akasaka, Azabu and Shiba wards following Tokyo City’s transformation into Tokyo Metropolis. The modern Minato ward exhibits the contrasting Shitamachi and Yamanote geographical and cultural division. The Shinbashi neighborhood in the ward’s northeastern corner is attached to the core of Shitamachi, the original commercial center of Edo-Tokyo. On the other hand, the Azabu and Akasaka areas are typically representative Yamanote districts.[2]
