@benrich__: SHIMOKITAZAWA – Vintage fashion, rare books and handmade ceramics; Shimokitazawa is a Tokyo neighbourhood full of design-focused boutiques both old and new. I’ve been visiting this slice of western Tokyo for years and always seem to find something new on each visit, whether it’s a decades old bookstore or a new independent homeware haven. If you’re looking to pick up some design treats on your next visit to Tokyo, or simply looking to explore a more local side of Japan’s capital, then here are a few places to get you started 🎎 Locations listed: — Bonus Track (Books & Cafes) — Sekai Class (Ceramics & Homeware) — Honkichi (Rare Books) — Sidewalk Coffee (Specialty Coffee Roastery) — APFR (Premium Fragrances) — Vintage Boutiques — Oribe (Ceramics) 🔖 Share this with a friend who is visiting Tokyo soon! #viewsfromjapan #shimokitazawa #travelguide #tokyo
