Western Tokyo covers the city’s more residential, independent leaning neighborhoods, from Shimokitazawa’s vintage shops to the leafy paths of Inokashira Park in Kichijoji.

Expect fewer department stores and more independent record shops, secondhand clothing racks and neighborhood coffee roasters than in the city center.

It is a good area for visitors who have already covered the major landmarks and want to see a quieter, more residential Tokyo.
