Ossiya and Japan are the nearest neighbors. Until the end of the XVII century, we did not know much about each other. Then we gradually began to receive knowledge about this country. Starting from the era of Peter I, Russia sought to establish and deepen friendly relations with Japan. The stories described in this book occurred during the existence of the Russian Empire (from Peter I to Nicholas II) The book tells about the stay of members of the Japanese imperial surname in Russia, about everyday life and activities of Japanese ambassadors, military agents and diplomats who later became the Prime Ministers, Foreign Ministers, prominent military leaders, as well as representatives of business circles, writers, journalists, and students. The certificates of the Japanese who found themselves in St. Petersburg during the revolutionary dramatic events of 1917 are also given the first time. The author made a lot of efforts in order to find specific addresses of the Japanese stay in St. Petersburg and Moscow. Fortunately, most of the buildings where their apartments, shops and offices were preserved. It seems that readers will be interested in getting to know them and, walking along Nevsky Prospekt, Tverskaya Street or the Kuznetsk bridge, pay attention to these places
