Tōkyō Monorail

The Tōkyō Monorail is an elevated transit system in Tokyo that uses a single, streamlined track to transport passengers efficiently across the city’s waterfront area. It operates on a suspended monorail technology, where trains run on a narrow guideway above ground level, reducing street congestion and offering scenic views. Opened in 1965, it connects key locations like Haneda Airport with other parts of Tokyo, providing a quick and reliable transportation option. Its modern design and elevated route make it a distinctive feature of Tokyo’s urban transit network, combining functionality with an unobstructed view of the cityscape.
