From what I've seen, Ginza looks like a business area. Large avenues, office buildings :
The station has a nice look, at the back on the following picture:
And right behind, more avenues with tons of shop to spend all your money...
By the way, there is a "Sony street", with a Sony building:
6 floors of showroom, between the newest releases and the soon-to-be-released products.
I didn't really get into it, I was a bit upset with seeing tons of people everywhere, plus I was tired. Next to Ginza is the imperial palace, and it's really nice to see such a traditional thing right next to such a modern district:
Of course I went there, but the most interesting parts are obviously restricted. The only authorized zone, the eastern gardens, has a limited interest, since it mainly consists in paved alleys with a couple trees. Nothing particular to it. I still was lucky enough to see that beautiful cherry tree:
