Why living in Nakano ward?
Founded in the year 1932, Nakano Ward was launched as the merger of the former Japanese towns, Nogata and Nakano, when they were integrated as a part of Tokyo. A neighborhood distinct from its nearby wards, Nakano is one of the most underrated spots in Japan.
Geographically, Nakano is surrounded by Toshima, Shinjuku, Nerima, Suginami and Shibuya. With major urban centers around the area, many tourists miss out on Nakano’s natural charms, but the locals know better than taking a pass on visiting this beautiful neighborhood.
A low-rise residential space just one ride away from bustling metropolitan wards, Nakano is filled with 50 authentic ramen shops, including pioneer shops and creative indie ramen restaurants, along with other amenities that greatly portray the Japanese culture. Among the most popular landmarks in the area is Nakano Broadway, a haven for anime and manga fans all over the world. Want to bring home anime collectibles? Don’t forget to visit this renowned shop.
Indeed, a stop to Nakano is a trip down memory lane as it features vintage shops that strongly represent the beauty of the Japanese culture and heritage. It may shy away from the spotlight, but it is definitely worth more than a single trip.
