The Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan (FCCJ) established in 1945 to provide support to foreign journalists working in Post-World War II Japan[1] has historically been situated in the vicinity of Ginza, Tokyo.

Today, the club offers a workroom facility, a library, a restaurant, a bar, and a steady stream of local and international speakers and panels, for its members. Its facilities are housed on the 5th and 6th floors of the Marunouchi Nijubashi Building near the Imperial Palace.

FCCJ publishes the monthly No. 1 Shimbun.[2]
