Roppongi Hills is one of Japan's largest property developments, located in Roppongi, Minato-ku. Designed and constructed by Minoru Mori, the complex consists of offices, swish apartments, high street and designer shops, restaurants, movie theaters, a museum, an art gallery, a hotel, a TV studio, an outdoor amphitheater, and a few parks.
