Tokyo’s “coolest” neighborhood is subjective and constantly shifting, as the city’s appeal lies in its diversity of areas, each offering a unique mix of trends, culture and hidden gems. japantimes.co.jp/commentary/20

What does Jimbocho think of its unexpected ‘cool’ status?

Known for its secondhand bookstores and curry shops, Jimbocho hasn’t traditionally topped tourists’ lists — but that could soon change. Time Out magazine recently declared the area the “world’s coolest neighborhood” — much to the surprise of Tokyoites. “I’m very happy,…

Jimbocho may have topped Time Out magazine's “coolest neighborhoods” list, but residents say their home is more than just a bunch of books. japantimes.co.jp/life/2025/10/

I went to Jimbocho "Book Town", somewhere I hadn't been before.

It was neat, browsed through a couple of shops, but standing and browsing is harder on my back than walking, which was my main goal, so after that I walked through the rest of the neighbourhood, and from there to Akihabara to check out "mAAch" an old train station that has been converted into shops.

I thought there was going to be more stuff inside, but it was still a neat space. Then I walked from there to Ueno before taking the train back home.

Bookstore store front, a 3 story building with a somewhat grungy beige colour. At street level, instead of windows, the store has bookshelves full of used books facing the sidewalk. A large plain back on white sign has the shop's name in Japanese, Yaguchi Shoten.Inside an old train station converted into shops and art gallery. The ceiling is the curved concrete underside of the old tracks; the floor is a nice dark brown hardwood. There are a series of similar rooms connected by short arched doorways, this one is empty. One wall along the "side" of the station is now windows looking out over the river; there is also some cafe seating outside the window.
