Meiji Style Tokyo

One of my personal favorite periods of Japanese history is the Meiji period.  Tokyo really came into it's own during the Meiji period, and thanks to a thirst for modernizing combined with some horrific fires, much of modern Tokyo was rebuilt then.  Here are some examples of Meiji style buildings I came across this trip.
Tokyo Station

Emperor's Palace

National Museum
