Stuck between Akihabara and Ueno Station, I discovered Okachimachi a long time ago thanks to Sanyo Japan. Yep in order to visit Sanyo HQ you will have to stop at Okachimachi Station and pass by one of the most interesting place to visit in Tokyo.
Okachimachi is another popular place of Tokyo, where everyday Japanese people lives and do their shopping in tiny little shops place all along the railway and just beneath it. Most people (tourist) makes the same mistake by just walking down the street, and ignore that many shops are hidden under the railway, so if you happen to visit this place don’t forget about these shops.
While this shopping area is mainly targeted to Japanese with its vegetables, fruits, fish and meat stores, there are however quite a lot of tiny fashion stores where you will find many US branded clothes and even some “Military” goods ranging from the Jungle boost (Mine are getting old by the way) to the leather jacket…
Messy, crowded and a tiny bit dirty, Okachimachi is worth your time if you happen to visit either Ueno or Akihabara !
