"Azabu-Juban" (麻布十番; "Azabu" meaning "linen cloth," "Juban" meaning "tenth" or "No. 10") is a district of Minato-ku, Tokyo. The district has cobblestone streets, parks, and a subway station. It is the home of Usagi and many of her friends. Most of the Sailor Moon storyline took place in Azabu-Juban.
Many locations in Sailor Moon are based on real places in Azabu-Juban as Naoko Takeuchi has spent a lot of time in the area and integrated those experiences into her story.
