VENUE & SOCIAL PROGRAMS
IEEE WHC 2019 will be held at the Sola City Conference Center in
Ochanomizu. Due to its proximity to Tokyo Station, Ueno, Suidobashi,
and Akihabara, it is also a convenient base for exploring the wider
area. Tokyo is a historic city that breathes with four hundred years
of tradition, while still being able to continually change and embrace
the future. The Kanda Myojin Shrine and the Mausoleum of Confucius at
Yushima are within walking distance of the venue. In addition, it
takes only 15 minutes to visit the Sensoji Temple with its Thunder
Gate. If you visit Akihabara, a fully-charged electric town sparking
original culture, you can find the cultural home to the diehard fans,
the "otaku", of gaming, manga, and anime. We hope to see you there!
