| • | Chūō (स&#-1115;&#-1746;ौ&#-480;-ku) is one of the 23 special wards that form the heart of Tokyo, Japan. It is historically the main commercial center of Tokyo, although Shinjuku has risen to challenge it since the end of World War II. The ward refers to itself as Chuo City in English.
Many of the most famous sites in Tokyo are in Chuo. The Ginza, site of the former silver mint from which it takes its name, is a famous neighborhood in Chuo. The gold mint, or Kinza, formerly occupied the site of the present-day Bank of Japan headquarters building, also in Chuo.
As of 2005, the ward has an estimated resident population of 97,987 and a density of 9654 persons per km². However, because of the concentration of businesses, offices and retail space, the daytime population swells to an estimated 650,000. The total area is 10.15 km².
