  Encyclopedia: Japanese addressing system   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The Japanese addressing system is used to identify a specific location in Japan.
It is worth noting that street names are not used in postal addresses, and that the numbers in the address are usually assigned by order of construction, meaning that especially in older areas of the city they will not run in linear order.
In Japanese, the address is written in order from largest unit to smallest, with the addressee's name last of all.
