Shinagawa has carried its name since the Heian period, and it flourished as a port for Edo Bay during the Kamakura period. With the advent of the Edo period, the Tokaido Post Station system was established, making Shinagawa the very first station on the route. The area remains lined with historic temples and shrines, preserving the atmosphere of the former post town.

The Shinagawa Tourism Association aims to revitalize the local area and foster industrial development through the promotion of tourism. For over 25 years, in cooperation with local residents, various organizations, and Shinagawa Ward, the association has worked to discover and promote new tourism resources, including the ward's history, culture, nature, industry, and technology.
