History
In the late Edo period, the present-day Uchiwaisaichō area was a part of the Hibiya area. Many daimyō{{'}}s mansions were located in the area, which was within the outer moat of Edo Castle.
After the Meiji Restoration, it was known for a time as {{nowrap|Uchiyamashita-cho}} before the name "Uchisaiwaichō" was adopted after its location between {{nihongo|Saiwaibashi Bridge|幸橋|Saiwaibashi}} on the Outer Moat and {{nihongo|Saiwai Gate|幸御門|Saiwai-gomon}}. The Tokyo National Museum was originally located in the area.
