Un quartiere tranquillo e accogliente, frequentato ogni giorno da lettori e bibliofili. Una coppia di sposi che, dopo alcuni anni di separazione, sembra aver ritrovato armonia e serenità. Una giovane donna che ha finalmente imparato ad affrontare le proprie paure. Questi sono gli ingredienti principali di Una sera tra amici a Jimbocho (Feltrinelli, 2023), seguito del bestseller I miei giorni alla libreria Morisaki. #libri #giappone #tokyo #jimbocho https://lisavagnozzi.altervista.org/una-sera-tra-amici-a-jimbocho/

A quick trip to #Odaiba today for some mooching around/merch from #TheGundamBase and rounded off the day with tasty yakinuku for our dinner 🥩🍚🫜🍜

Our last night in #Jimbocho before we travel to #Inuyama via the Shinkansen tomorrow 🌅🚅

We just love this cozy, relaxed town with easy access to the hustle & bustle of central Tokyo 😢☺️

A bit too early for our hotel check-in but the staff kind enough to hold our luggage 😅

So mooching around in the sunshine in our favorite neighbourhood, #Jimbocho 🏘️☺️

Jimbocho’s latest addition isn’t a bookstore or a coffee shop but an independent cinema built by a film lover who wants audiences to take more chances. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2025/12/11/film/mini-theater-cinemalice/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #culture #film #cinemas #film #japanesefilm #chiyodaward #jimbocho

A movie buff in Jimbocho bets on independent cinema in a big way

Tokyo’s “coolest” neighborhood is subjective and constantly shifting, as the city’s appeal lies in its diversity of areas, each offering a unique mix of trends, culture and hidden gems. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/11/03/is-there-coolest-neighborhood-in-tokyo/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #jimbocho #shimokitazawa #koenji #kichijoji #daikanyama #nakameguro #roppongi #odaiba #toyosu #ueno #nishishinjuku #shibuya #yoyogikoen #daikanyama #aoyama #omotesando #ebisu #tokyo #harajuku

Tokyo’s coolest neighborhood? There isn’t one.

Tokyo can’t be reduced to a single trendy suburb: What’s appealing is precisely the incongruity of its locales.

I went to Jimbocho "Book Town", somewhere I hadn't been before.

It was neat, browsed through a couple of shops, but standing and browsing is harder on my back than walking, which was my main goal, so after that I walked through the rest of the neighbourhood, and from there to Akihabara to check out "mAAch" an old train station that has been converted into shops.

I thought there was going to be more stuff inside, but it was still a neat space. Then I walked from there to Ueno before taking the train back home.
