The mansion is modeled after the [[Wikipedia: Luxembourg Palace|Palais du Luxembourg]], in real life to be found at [[Wikipedia: Rue de Vaugirard|Rue de Vaugirard 15]] in the [[Wikipedia: 6th arrondissement of Paris|6th arrondissement]] of [[Wikipedia:Paris|Paris]]. It also served as the model for the [[Ohshima Art Museum]] in [[Magic Kaito Volume 3#Akako's Delivery Service|chapter 17]] of ''[[Magic Kaito]]'' and the [[Kurogane residence]] in ''[[Yaiba]]''.
Futatsubashi Middle School the kidnapper keeps Akiko Tani at is a play on the real Hitotsubashi Middle School in [[Wikipedia: Chiyoda, Tokyo|Chiyoda Ward]] ("hitotsu" = "one", "futatsu" = "two"). Furthermore, the Hyakujii Park the kidnapper wants his ransom money placed in is based on the name of the [[Wikipedia: Shakujii Park|Shakujii Park]] Gosho Aoyama once lived close to during his time when he lived in the [[Wikipedia: Nerima|Nerima Ward]] and which he often visited in his spare time.<ref>[[Questions given by the Shonen Sunday magazine#1994]], 1994 #16, FILE.12<br>公園や遊園地など、お勧めの遊び場は、「前に住んでいたマンションの近所の石神井公園。」<br>Playgrounds, such as public parks and amusement parks, that you recommend is "The Ishigamii park, which was near the apartment I used to live in."<br>translated by justwantanaccount<br>

=== ¥1,000,000,000 Robbery (Manga: [[Volume 2#¥1,000,000,000 Robbery|13-16]]) ===
 
Conan Edogawa is on the way back from the Beika Police Department to the [[Mouri Detective Agency]] together with Kogoro and Ran Mouri, during which he, with the help of his new [[Criminal Tracking Glasses|glasses gadget]], geolocates the tall man "4 kilometers to the northwest... in [[Wikipedia: Shinjuku|Shinjuku]]", which, if you take any point in Shinjuku, would encompass exactly the area tinted and framed in blue on the following map for Conan (and the part of [[Beika]] seen here) to potentially be in - consisting of a good chunk of the upper half of [[Wikipedia: Minato, Tokyo|Minato]], the lower half of [[Wikipedia: Chiyoda|Chiyoda]] and a remote southeast corner of the Shinjuku Ward itself.

=== Code Sheet Case (Manga: [[Volume 4#Code Sheet Case|36-39]]) ===
 
The [[Detective Boys]] take a bus on the real To06 line (都06) of [[Wikipedia: Toei Bus|Toei Bus]] to get from Beika (or, rather, a bus stop close to Beika Park, it seems) to [[Tokyo Tower]]. The line indeed leads from [[Wikipedia: Shibuya Station|Shibuya Station]] through the [[Wikipedia: Minato, Tokyo|Minato Ward]], passed the Tower and has its final destination at [[Wikipedia: Shimbashi Station|Shimbashi Station]]. As this, it's one of the most direct hints about where Beika may be set in the world of the manga. The complete route can be seen as a green line on the map.

"Tohto Tower" in that same case of course is Tokyo Tower in anything but name.<ref>[[Interviews#Love Conan Interview]]<br>

They don’t. Tohto tower is Tokyo tower. It’s like a mix of fiction and reality.<br>
 
Translation by: Yunniechan</ref> It goes on to become a recurring location, implied to be very close to Beika and [[Haido]], maybe even part of it in the world of ''[[Detective Conan]]''. It also features as the background photo on the front cover of [[Volume 36|Volumes 36]] and [[Volume 93|93]].

[[Hideo Akagi]] and his team are playing their soccer match in the [[Wikipedia: National Stadium (Tokyo, 1958)|Tokyo National Stadium]] ([https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/霞ヶ丘町 Kasumigaoka Town]<sub>(jp)</sub>, [[Wikipedia: Shinjuku|Shinjuku Ward]]), also known as Kokuritsu Kyōgijō, as it is called in the chapters, too. The real stadium has been restructured since then and looks vastly different than at the time it was featured in ''Detective Conan''.

=== Follow the Voice!! (Manga: [[Volume 9#File 082 - Follow the Voice!!|82]]) ===
 
The "'''Yotsubishi Gas'''" station is a play on the (once) real [[Wikipedia: Mitsubishi|Mitsubishi]] Gas stations, including a fitting four-petaled logo (instead of the usual three-petaled one), but considering that there are roughly thousands of gas stations in and around Tokyo who all look similar or identical, and the fact that none of them have that same name anymore (most of it seems to be [[Wikipedia: JXTG Nippon Oil & Energy|Nippon Oil]] by now) and that this was over two decades ago, it's safe to assume that it will be extremely difficult or impossible to ever find the specific model for this exact one.
 
 
 
=== TV Station Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 11#TV Station Murder Case|102-104]]) ===

=== Kaitou Kid and the Black Star (Manga: [[Volume 16#Kaitou Kid and the Black Star|156-157]]) ===
 
The surroundings seen from the roof Conan Edogawa and [[Kaitou Kid]] have their first meeting on, including Tokyo Tower and the [https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/城山ガーデン Shiroyama Trust Tower]<sub>(jp)</sub> to the left and, hence, the position of [[Haido City Hotel]], are identical with those of the [https://anaintercontinental-tokyo.jp/en/ ANA Intercontinental Tokyo Hotel] in the [[Wikipedia: Akasaka, Tokyo|Akasaka District]] of Minato Ward. Apart from that, Gosho Aoyama used a different, so far unidentified model for the hotel itself.

=== Sato's Father Case (Manga: [[Volume 26#Sato's Father Case|267-269]]) ===
 
A serial arsonist sets fire to several places in Tokyo, the last of which so far is in [[Wikipedia: Yotsuya|Yotsuya]], a district in [[Wikipedia: Shinjuku|Shinjuku Ward]], where [[Ayumi Yoshida]] saw the arsonist after he started the fire. Shortly after being interrogated by inspector [[Miwako Sato]] at the [[Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department]] about the person in question, she wants to drive to Yotsuya together with the Detective Boys, saying that she wants to take a stop anyway, since it's "the same way" - which is revealed to be the fourth block of Haido, where her [[Masayoshi Sato|father]] happened to die 18 years ago, firmly placing this block of the fictitious district somewhere between the real districts of [[Wikipedia: Kasumigaseki|Kasumigaseki]] (Chiyoda Ward) and the aforementioned Yotsuya - in an area on the southwest border of Chiyoda it shares with the Minato Ward.

During this call, [[Juzo Megure]] tells them that he and some other policemen from the Shinagawa Police Department are chasing a suspect who escaped during an interrogation in the "sixth block" of Shinagawa (probably referring to the "district" of Shinagawa, which is an alternate name for [[Wikipedia: Takanawa|Takanawa]] and [https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/港南_(東京都港区) Kōnan]<sub>(jp)</sub>, distinct from the homonymous [[Wikipedia: Shinagawa|ward]]), who should be "close" to them. [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] start driving and are able to catch the criminal at the Takanawa Exit of [[Wikipedia: Shinagawa Station|Shinagawa Station]], which, despite its name and like the "Shinagawa District", is in the south of Minato. The [[Nanagamari Pub]] is said to be in front of the train station.
 
 
 
The [[Wikipedia: Keihin–Tōhoku Line|Keihin–Tōhoku Line]] and the adjacent stations of [[Wikipedia: Tamachi Station (Tokyo)|Tamachi]] (back then) and [[Wikipedia: Ōimachi Station|Ōimachi]] are also namechecked.

The places the serial arsonist set fire to are all real locations of Tokyo: The [[Wikipedia: Ikebukuro|Ikebukuro District]] in [[Toshima]], the [[Wikipedia: Asakusabashi|Asakusabashi District]] in [[Wikipedia: Taitō|Taitō]], [[Wikipedia:Tabata Station (Tokyo)|Tabata]] in [[Wikipedia: Kita, Tokyo|Kita]], the [[Wikipedia: Shimokitazawa|Shimokitazawa District]] in [[Wikipedia: Setagaya|Setagaya Ward]] and the aforementioned Yotsuya in Shinjuku. This also fits [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya]]'s thoughts and the relations on [[Ai Haibara]]'s map with markers of the scenes of the fires shown in-story, corresponding with real life maps.

=== Disappearing Mitsuhiko 1 (Manga: [[Volume 35#File 358 - Disappearing Mitsuhiko 1|358]]+) ===
 
This is probably the one most people on here already know: [[Beika Station]], appearing from FILE.358 onwards is based on [[Wikipedia:Shin-Ōkubo Station|Shin-Ōkubo Station]], just like in the [[movies]], in real life built in [https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/百人町 Hyakunin Town] of [[Wikipedia:Shinjuku|Shinjuku Ward]]. Contrary to the movies, though, it isn't on vaguely the same position as the real train station, but closer to the [[Wikipedia:Ebisu, Shibuya|Ebisu]] and [[Wikipedia:Gotanda|Gotanda Districts]] on the border between the wards [[Wikipedia:Shibuya|Shibuya]], [[Wikipedia:Minato, Tokyo|Minato]] and [[Wikipedia:Shinagawa|Shinagawa]] in the [[manga]].

=== Vampire's Mansion (Manga: [[Volume 79#Vampire's Mansion|834]]-[[Volume 80#Vampire's Mansion|840]]) ===
 
The [[Torakura residence|house]] of the [[Torakura family]] is modeled after a house in [[Wikipedia:Kyu-Furukawa Gardens|Kyu-Furukawa Gardens]] - only one of several allusions to ''[Wikipedia:Umineko When They Cry|Umineko no Naku Koro ni]]'' in this case (besides ''Dracula'', of course), since the entrance of the guest house of that franchise [https://umineko.fandom.com/wiki/Rokkenjima was also designed like it]. While the Torakura mansion is said to be on the border of [[Wikipedia:Saitama Prefecture|Saitama]] and [[Wikipedia:Gunma Prefecture|Gunma Prefectures]], the real building and its surrounding park are actually situated in the [https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/西ケ原 Nishigahara District] of the [[Wikipedia:Kita, Tokyo|Kita Ward]] in [[Tokyo]]. Fittingly, it's also said to be a popular filming location for horror movies.
 
 
 
It also serves as the background photo of [[Volume 79]]'s front cover.

=== Romance Novelist Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 83#Romance Novelist Murder Case|876-878]]) ===
 
[[Masumi Sera]] invites her friends [[Ran Mouri]], [[Sonoko Suzuki]] and [[Conan Edogawa]] to the new 50-floor-hotel she's currently living in after [[Teitan High School|school]]. Ran's view from the window straight to the distinctive skyscrapers of the [[Wikipedia:Shibuya|Shibuya Ward]], as well as [[Yoyogi Park]] and [[Nishi-Shinjuku]] behind those in the background by distance, perspective, as well as height and nature of the building as a luxurious skyscraper hotel/apartment complex suggests it to be on the spot where [[Daikanyama Address Tower]] is standing in real life ([[Daikanyama Town]], Shibuya Ward) - the only skyscraper of this kind in the vicinity from which such a panorama could be seen.
 
 
 
The taller buildings (from the left) are [[Wikipedia:Shibuya Mark City|Shibuya Mark City]] (the rectangular one), the skyscraper right next to it, to the left of Ran's head, is the [[Wikipedia:Cerulean Tower|Cerulean Tower]], the building with the skewed roof below to the right of it, still to the left of Ran, is the Special School Shibuya, to the right of Ran's chin [[Wikipedia:Shinjuku Gyo-en|Shinjuku National Garden]] is visible (together with the [[Wikipedia:Nishi-Shinjuku|Nishi-Shinjuku]] skyscraper district - one can even make out the three-stage [[Wikipedia:Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building|Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building]] No. 2, if looking very closely) and between Ran and her speech bubble the tower at [[Wikipedia:Shibuya Station|Shibuya Station]] can be seen.

=== Drug Trading Case (Manga: [[Volume 83#Drug Trading Case|879-881]]) ===
 
The Ebisu Bridge [[Conan Edogawa]] goes to ("secretly" being followed by [[Ai Haibara]] and the [[Detective Boys]]) is a real bridge in the eponymous [[Wikipedia:Ebisu, Shibuya|Ebisu District]] of [[Wikipedia:Shibuya|Shibuya Ward]] in [[Tokyo]]. Interestingly, it's implied to be in or near [[Beika]] in Conan's world, considering they were on the way to Professor [[Hiroshi Agasa]]'s house and went to the bridge by foot. The name of the bridges also play a bigger role during this case.

=== Kamaitachi Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 86#Kamaitachi Murder Case|909-912]]) ===
 
The [[Kamaitachi Inn]] is modeled after the [http://www.naraijyuku-echigoya.jp/ Echigoya Ryokan]<sub>(jp)</sub> in [http://www.go-nagano.net/shisetsu-detail?shisetsuid=15003001 Narai] ([[Wikipedia:Shiojiri, Nagano|Shiojiri City]]), in the midst of the mountains of [[Wikipedia:Nagano Prefecture|Nagano Prefecture]], at an old route between [[Tokyo]] (Edo back then) and [[Kyoto]] - so the description about the Kamaitachi Inn being "in the mountains of Nagano" in the manga is certainly true for its reference building.

There are several Sound Studio NOAH branches in Tokyo, including another one in [[Wikipedia:Shibuya|Shibuya Ward]], but the Shinjuku one is the correct model.

=== Eri Kisaki Abduction Case (Manga: [[Volume 93#Eri Kisaki Abduction Case|984-986]]) ===
 
The closeness of [[Beika]] to the [[Tokyo Tower]] is specified by establishing the existence of a church in the neighbourhood of [[Mouri Detective Agency]], the bells of which could still be heard by [[Eri Kisaki]] in her hiding spot 1 kilometer (~0.6 miles) away. [[Conan Edogawa]], [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and [[Ran Mouri]] go to the [[Wikipedia:Zōjō-ji|Zōjō-ji]], a temple right next to the Tower, at which Conan shoots his soccer ball against the bell of Shōrōdo (the small pavilion in front of the temple), the sound of which Eri can still hear in the distance of 340 meters (~0.2 miles). Based on the intersection points of two imaginary circles around church and Shōrōdo with respective radii of 1 kilometer and 340 meters, the trio can narrow down the place Eri is kept at to two (fictional) districts, [[Sutan]] and [[Buroku]].
 
 
 
<gallery>
 
File:File 985 Conan Tower Zojo Beika Relations.jpg|Conan thinks about the relations between Tokyo Tower, Mouri Detective Agency and the neighbouring church
 
</gallery>
 
 
 
The gain of knowledge from this is that the church and, by extension, Mouri Detective Agency have to be inside a well-spaced radius of 1.34 kilometers (~0.83 miles) around the Shōrōdo. This would, in real life, partly encompass the districts of [[Wikipedia:Mita, Minato, Tokyo|Mita]], the [[Wikipedia:Shiba, Minato, Tokyo|Shiba area]], Kaigan, [[Wikipedia:Atago, Tokyo|Atago]], the [[Wikipedia:Shinbashi|Shinbashi area]], [[Wikipedia:Toranomon|Toranomon]], [[Wikipedia:Akasaka, Tokyo|Akasaka]], [[Wikipedia:Roppongi|Roppongi]] and the area of [[Wikipedia:Azabu|Azabu]], which are all in the [[Wikipedia:Minato, Tokyo|Minato Ward]]. If one also takes the schematic depiction of the relations of Tokyo Tower, [[Tokyo Skytree]], Zōjō-ji, church and detective agency from the minds of the characters exactly, church and detective agency (and as such, parts of Beika) would be vaguely locatable to the west, the south or the southwest.
 
 
 
The cinema Kogoro and Eri go to at the end of the case is modeled after the Cinemas Q in [[Wikipedia:Naha|Naha City]], [[Wikipedia:Okinawa Prefecture|Okinawa Prefecture]], actually on the island of [[Wikipedia:Kyushu|Kyushu]]. Judging by the [[Suzuki Library]], it seems like [[Gosho Aoyama]] or someone he knows did research there not all too long before those chapters.

[[Haido Port]] is practically identical to the real life Hinode Pier at the border between [[Wikipedia:Minato, Tokyo|Minato]] (which it belongs to) and [[Wikipedia:Chiyoda, Tokyo|Chiyoda Wards]], in turn also implying the [[Haido]] district to be around the border of these wards again. The warehouses on the right (and the one the case happens in) are the Hinode Pier Warehouses (Second block, Kaigan District, Minato Ward, [[Tokyo]]) - in real life, the ones on the panel/photo are numbered 2-A, 2-B, 2-C, etc., in ''[[Detective Conan]]'', they are simply given numbers. Judging by their manga and real life succession, No. 4 (where the murder happens in) should correlate with warehouse 2-D.
 
 
 
Furthermore, the ship in front of the other one [[Ran Mouri]], [[Kazuha Toyama]] and [[Momiji Ooka]] photograph themselves in front of in the last chapter of this case is the "[https://www.silversea.com/en/ships/silver-muse.html Silver Muse]" of the Silverseas company, which actually passes (or passed - it seemingly moved to Canada afterwards) the Hinode Pier on its route when it arrives in Tokyo after leaving [[Wikipedia:Yokohama|Yokohama]] to the north - just like it passed Haido Port in ''Detective Conan''. The "identity" of the other ship is still unknown, though.

=== The Revived Phantom Thief (MK Manga: [[Magic Kaito Volume 1#The Revived Phantom Thief|1]]) ===
 
[[Ekoda High School]], in this incarnation of the story is very probably based on the main building (#3) on the Ekoda Campus of [[Wikipedia:Musashi University|Musashi University]], right next to the Ekoda Campus (fine arts) of [[Wikipedia:Nihon University|Nihon University]], where [[Gosho Aoyama]] and [[Yutaka Abe]] (a past mentor and current assistant of his) studied and lived - also not far away from [[Wikipedia:Ekoda Station|Ekoda Station]], which was close to Gosho's apartment.
 
 
 
Interestingly enough, building #3 was a high school once and what is the Ekoda Campus of Nihon today once housed another high school associated with the university, called [https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/日本大学江古田高等学校 Ekoda High School]<sub>(jp)</sub> (also shortened as 江古田高校 (''Ekoda kōkō''), like the school in the manga), which closed in 1976 and is also used as a university building today. All of the mentioned campuses and buildings are located in the adjacent neighbourhoods of [https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/旭丘_(練馬区) Asahigaoka]<sub>(jp)</sub> and [https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/豊玉上 Toyotamakami]<sub>(jp)</sub> in [[Wikipedia:Nerima|Nerima Ward]]. Ekoda High School was first used by Yutaka Abe in ''[[100% Tantei Monogatari]]'' in 1986 (set in the same universe as ''[[Magic Kaito]]'' and made with the assistance of Gosho).

The view would thus be to the southeast, with the helicopters in consequence flying to the northeast to reach [[Ono Bank]] (which probably was a nod to the [[Wikipedia:Tokyo Bank|Tokyo Bank]], which indeed was located in the [[Wikipedia:Nihonbashi|Nihonbashi District]], to the northeast of Ginza, back then (before merging with Mitsubishi Bank and moving to [[Wikipedia:Chiyoda, Tokyo|Chiyoda Ward]]), which is supported by the fact that "Ono" was a generic placeholder word for terms with "Tokyo" and "Japan" in it, used by Gosho in the same vein as "Tohto" nowadays). Interestingly, this intersection is right next to another famous crossroads in Ginza - the one Kid did his midair walk over in ''[[Detective Conan]]'' later on.

The unnamed jungle [[Yaiba Kurogane]] and [[Kenjuro Kurogane|his father]] live in seems to be (intentionally) highly ambigious about what jungle or even on which continent it could remotely be. Besides the rather generous surroundings, animals like Gorillas (from Sub-Saharan Africa), Tigers (having their habitat in continental Asia) and Jaguars (who usually live in Central and South America) seem to have their habitat there.
 
 
 
The airport Yaiba, his father [[Kenjuro Kurogane]] and their pet tiger [[Kategora]] arrive at is the real [[Wikipedia:Narita International Airport|Narita International Airport]] on the border between the towns of [[Wikipedia:Narita, Chiba|Narita]] and [[Wikipedia:Shibayama, Chiba|Shibayama]] in the [[Wikipedia:Chiba Prefecture|Chiba Prefecture]], which is part of the [[Wikipedia:Greater Tokyo Area|Greater Tokyo Area]]. It was the biggest and most important airport serving [[Tokyo]] back then, before it was replaced in this function by [[Wikipedia:Haneda Airport|Haneda Airport]]. They would also have to arrive in what is [[Wikipedia:Narita International Airport#Terminal 1|Terminal 1]] nowadays, since Terminal 2 and 3 opened in 1992 and 2015 respectively, long after the release of this chapter.

This technically makes [[Onimaru Castle|Onimaru's castle]] a real building - as this, it's one of the best places to pinpoint the location of the fictional [[Yaoya]] District and the mansion of the [[Mine family]], since it's pretty close to the castle.

Setting models is a work in progress. This page is currently being edited. Please consider helping the users to complete the page and fill in the missing pieces if you are able.


This is a list of real life buildings, places and other surroundings Gosho Aoyama used as reference models for the settings appearing in his works. Please see this list here as an active work in progress. What you'll do with this information in the end is up to you, maybe you can use this knowledge for a fan fiction or go on one of those manga/anime pilgrimages when you are in Japan. Every series will be partitioned by medium (since the position of the same building or place in a franchise differs from medium to medium sometimes).

There will be mentions of the different (real) wards (-ku) of Tokyo and the towns (-chō) they are composed of respectively a lot, which can get quite complicated and confusing if you are not knowledgable about the geography of Tokyo and how this city is administrated. Below you can see a very good map from TokyoMap.com, giving you a quick and simple rundown of the structure of its wards.

The Metropolitan Police Academy Tokyo from Rei Furuya's manga spin-off is just that: The real Metropolitan Police Academy. It's called by its actual name and also looks the same in the manga, no renaming or anything. It's not actually in the City of Tokyo, but part of its Metropolitan Area, in the City of Fuchū.
