Shimokitazawa is exactly like Camden Town of London UK in Tokyo Japan! Vintage shops, wider range of variety retails and clothes as well as restaurants and cafe can be found here! Great to place to explore for family with teenagers!

I don't understand how this place is not more popular! A really beautiful Buddhist temple located outside of the busier parts of Tokyo. Excellent choice for cat-lovers as you'll find the classic waving cat statues in abundance! You can see the shrine with all the statues placed together in a cluster, and it's quite the sight. That's not all this temple has to offer though, the grounds are full of interesting things such as a pagoda, statues and memorials, as well as a larger grounds near the back of ruins to wander around in. You can also purchase your own waving cat statue to do with what you wish, you can add it to the shrine or keep it for your own good luck. Buy one and they'll also provide you with an English translation of the story of how the waving cat came to be. Honestly one of my favorite experiences in Tokyo.
