Highlights
We will explore the charming town of Kichijoji, one of the most desirable places to live in Japan. Located about a 15-minute train ride from Shibuya or Shinjuku, this town offers not only a trendy urban atmosphere but also a rich mix of history, culture, and nature. The highlight of the tour is Harmonica Yokocho, a lively alley filled with small bars and eateries where you can enjoy one drink and two skewers of yakitori. Located near the Ghibli Museum, why not join us for a stroll through Kichijoji after your visit?
Itinerary
Sunroad, Kichijoji
15 minsAdmission Ticket FreeWe’ll begin with a walk through Sunroad Shopping Street, voted Tokyo residents’ second favorite shopping street in 2022 (just after Ameyoko). Stretching 300 meters and lined with around 150 shops, Sunroad is filled with everyday charm — from cozy cafés and fashion boutiques to long-standing family stores. It’s the perfect place to feel the lively, local rhythm of Kichijoji.Gesso-ji Temple
15 minsAdmission Ticket FreeNext, we’ll visit Gesso-ji Temple, the heart of Kichijoji’s history and the reason this town was originally formed. A peaceful Zen Buddhist temple surrounded by greenery, it remains an important gathering place for the local community. Take a moment to slow down and enjoy the calm, spiritual side of the neighborhood.Kichijoji Nakamichidori Shopping Archade
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeStroll along Nakamichi-dori and nearby streets, where old and new Tokyo meet. You’ll find shops that have been beloved for over half a century standing alongside stylish cafés, sweets shops, and unique boutiques. Every corner has something interesting — whether it’s a retro storefront, handmade goods, or the aroma of freshly brewed coffee.Hamonika Yokocho Kichijoji
15 minsAdmission Ticket FreeWe’ll finish at Harmonica Yokocho, a narrow maze of small bars and eateries that began as a post-war black market. Its name comes from how the tiny alleyways resemble the reeds of a harmonica. As red lanterns sway above and laughter spills from the doorways, you’ll feel a nostalgic slice of old Tokyo. Enjoy one drink and two skewers of yakitori while soaking up the lively evening atmosphere.
