Konyachō, Chiyoda, Tokyo

nihongo|Konyachō|紺屋町, formally nihongo|Kanda-Konyachō|神田紺屋町, is a district of Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan.

The district is made up of two uncontinuous (northern and southern) neighborhoods split by Kitanorimonochō. Originally, only the southern portion had been called Konyachō. But in 1719, the Edo government ordered a part of Konyachō's residents to move to the north of Kitanorimonochō for disaster prevention. Since then, both portions adjacent to Kitanorimonochō have been called Konyachō.

Today, the district is a business district near Kanda Station.
