Nakano Broadway & Hidden Back Alleys 👑🐷 Tokyo Tours

Move over Akihabara! Today we are exploring Nakano Broadway, and as someone living in Japan, this is my favourite neighbourhood to recommend to for anime fans, niche collectors, Pokemon fans, tiny object lovers, and explorers. We’re diving deep into the David Bowie "Labyrinth" to show the treasures, but the real magic is once you escape to explore Nakano's back alleys... Join me as we find: Hidden Vinyl Cafes and Wine Bars Craft Beer, lemon sours, and steamed dumplings at Citraba Rare collectibles and capsule toys Delicious Korean street food hiding in the basement Planning a trip to Japan?
