Hotel the Manhattan: The remnant of the bubble economy having a copy of a curtain from "Gone with the window".

Japan enjoyed what we call“The bubble economy” for four to five years starting 1986. Some memberships of golf courses were sold at half million US dollars. Salesmen for that kind of expensive memberships did not have any problem in selling them at that period. Westin hotels, InterContinental hotels, Rockefeller Center, Plaza hotel New York etc were bought by Japanese companies at that time. Of course, some hotels were built incredibly gorgeously in Japan during that period. The Manhattan, seen on the way to Tokyo from Narita Airport,is one of such typical hotels. When you walk in, you will be amazed with its glorious marbles used here and there. In one of meeting rooms, there is a curtain which was specially created as a copy of the one used for the famous movie“Gone with the window”. The heroin Scarlett O'Hara who did not have money to buy a dress used the curtain to make a fantastic dress to participate in a ball reception to meet wealthy people. The hotel is well worth visiting. For more information, please visit Chiba of "Hotels" on the map of Grand Collection of Japanese Traditions. and you can find the website of the Manhattan.
