Tokyo's Hub for Alternative Music Culture, Vintage Clothing, and Cheap Pubs - 4K HDR

The liberal, bohemian Koenji neighborhood in western Tokyo grew out of Japan's radical student movements of the 1960s. Now it's a hub for alternative music culture, vintage clothing, and cheap pubs. Walk down Koenji Junjo Shopping Street where you'll find vintage clothes and discount stores, alongside affordable pubs and restaurants. The area around Koenji Station consists of shotengai shopping arcades and narrow alleys offering an abundance of shopping, dining, and drinking options. These include Koenji Junjo Shopping Street, Koenji Street, Koenji Pal Shopping Street, and Koenji Look Shopping Street. In the afternoon, eager shoppers in search of specific styles crowd the streets. Rows of vintage clothing shops cater to every taste, from 1950s women's fashion (Bernet) to classic sneaker stores (Green Light). In the evening, these streets fill up with locals in search of cheap food and drink. The izakaya and restaurants here offer both standard Japanese and eclectic foreign cuisine. The narrow alleys and hidden streets are full of tiny bars catering to specific subcultures and art/music scenes. In addition to affordable drinks and food, the neighborhood flourishes with live music. Punk rock is particularly well-received in this area, but virtually all music has a home here.
