Orange Days | Jingu Gaien Ginkgo Avenue — The Episode 8 Meeting

The ginkgo avenue at Meiji Jingu Gaien in Tokyo appears in episode 8 of TBS’s 2004 オレンジデイズ (Orange Days). Filming-location records identify the tree-lined avenue as the place where Kai, Sae and the others meet, using one of Tokyo’s most distinctive urban promenades as an instantly readable gathering point. The avenue still runs through Meiji Jingu Gaien and remains especially famous for its double rows of ginkgo trees. Because the setting is public and visually recognizable, it is one of the easier Orange Days locations to revisit without relying on a private building or a reconstructed set. Pilgrimage note: this is an active public avenue with road traffic and heavy seasonal crowds, particularly during autumn foliage. Recreate viewpoints only from safe pedestrian areas and do not step into traffic or obstruct other visitors.
