Youth culture

Sunday is the best day to see Harajuku’s youth culture on display, as groups stake out their territory

around Yoyogi Park. The bridge across the train tracks is full of teenagers dressed in extreme youth

fashions.

Also on display are junk vendors and rock bands - both occasionally dispersed by police crack-downs.

and his consort, Empress Shoken. Located just beside the JR Yamanote

The spacious shrine grounds offer walking paths that are great for a relaxing stroll.

DAIKANYAMAOne stop from Shibuya on the Toyoku line, Daikanyama is a small, but upcoming fashionable area.

You’ll find many boutiques, small shops and cafes – without all the bustle of larger stations.

BOOKS

DAIKANYAMA T-SITe

Tokyo’s Klein Dytham Architecture won an award at the World

Architecture Festival for their work on Daikanyama T-Site.

The ‘T’ stands for rental chain Tsutaya, who helped fund the kind

of book emporium that most capital cities can only dream of.

It’s easy to lose hours thumbing through the selections here, which include a good range of English-lan-

guage titles. There are also music and DVD sections, as well as branches of Starbucks and Family Mart,

and you’ll find specialist camera, bicycle and pet shops elsewhere in the complex. The Anjin lounge

upstairs is hard to beat if you’re looking to enjoy some vintage periodicals and cocktails.

KOENJI / KICHIJOJIThe highlight of Kichij, which extends into Mitaka, is Inokashira Park, which has long walking paths

surrounding a lake. The park is filled with cherry and maple trees, making it an excellent choice for

both flower viewing in the spring, and witnessing autumn colors in autumn.

Kichij once enjoyed a reputation as an artists colony, and today it is filled with boutique stores as well

as the larger department stores. The area attracts all types, from upscale shoppers to hip-hop dancers

practicing in the train station and musicians playing live music in the park.

AKIHABARA

Page 30: TokyoPaperGuide Vol01

Akihabara - also known as Akihabara electric Town - is a district of Tokyo, Japan. It is located less

than five minutes by rail from Tokyo Station. Its name is frequently shortened to Akiba in Japan.

Akihabara is a major shopping area for electronic, computer, anime, games and all other things

‘otaku’, including new and used items. New items are mostly to be found on the main street, with

many kinds of used items found in the back streets of Soto Kanda 3-chme. Tools, electrical parts,

wires, tiny, tiny cameras and similar items are found in the cramped passageways of Soto Kanda

1-chōme (near the station). Foreign tourists tend to visit the big name shops like Laox or other special-

ity shops near the station, although there is more variety and lower prices at locales further away.

Akihabara has gained some notoriety for being home to one of the first stores devoted to personal

robots and robotics.

ART

2K540 AKI-OKA ArTISAN

5-9 Ueno, Taito, Tokyo Prefecture 110-0005, Japan

Okachi-machi, known for its wholesale stores selling jewelry and ornaments, is located between Ueno

and Akihabara. In December 2010, a new spot called “2k540 Aki-Oka Artisan” was born there which

gathers together the skills of traditional craftsmen. It is situated underneath the elevated railway tracks

as you walk towards Akihabara along the train tracks from JR Okachimachi Station. The theme of these

facilities is “making things,” and 2k540 Aki-Oka Artisan features a group of craftsmen who display their

advanced, high quality skills in galleries, studios, cafes, shops, and more. Visitors are able to shop, watch

and experience all many of craft-making, with regular workshops held to allow visitors to try their

hand at making things.

2k540 Aki-Oka Artisan’s mysterious name comes from railroad terminology expressing the distance

(called “kilotei”) from Tokyo Station. “Aki-Oka” refers to the location between Akihabara and Okachi-

machi.
