With Koenji being a "creative town" it's no surprise that the BnA Hotel opened there in 2016 and has had, subsequently, an incredible impact on the local community. BnA (Bed and Art) has other spaces dotted about Tokyo and Kyoto, but the Koenji edition is possibly more immersive as the concept is "stay in an artwork." In collaboration with local artists, the BnA has created an impressive multi-storey art experiment for art lovers and creatives with a desire to inhabit art.

Harukiya

Harukiya

Ramen has become a global cuisine over the past decade with ramen-ya popping up in cities all over the globe. Millions of visitors, however, flock to Japan every year to experience the real deal. Harukiya, located a few minutes from JR Ogikubo Station, is a Tokyo institution. Established in 1949 it is the originator of Tokyo-style ramen which uses niboshi (dried baby sardines) in its broth and has been serving up first-class soy sauce which hasn’t changed for more than 70 years and has, rightly, earned it a legion of devotees. Although Harukiya has a sister branch in nearby Kichijoji, the Ogikubo store is the original and takes great pride in creating its authentic Tokyo-style chuka soba as well as chashumen and wontonmen. The aroma from the ramen floats into the outside streets having a visible effect on the patrons who queue daily to get their hands on Harukiya’s mouth-watering ramen. Popular with Ogikubo residents and foreign ramen aficionados, Harukiya has a small, curated menu with toppings, cold noodles and a few side dishes which accompany the ramen. Harukiya has led the Tokyo ramen industry for generations and there’s a reason for this. The aromatic soy sauce ramen and hand made noodles which are freshly kneaded every morning have inspired ramen lovers and ramen chefs the world over and will continue to do so for many more years to come.

Re:gendo

Re:gendo

Re:gendo is a cafe, apparel and arts and crafts store found in the quaint backstreets of Nishi-Ogikubo, just a few minutes from the station. It embodies everything about Shimane prefecture, capturing the essence of its history, culture and beauty that help inspire everything on offer here. Located in a spectacular wooden structure, which is said to be around 90 years old, Re:gendo is an homage to Shimane and the staff and owners take great care to display the cultural history of their beloved homeland. It’s a curious space, layed out over two floors. It acts as a thriving restaurant, apparel store, arts and crafts shop and a workshop space which focuses on teaching craftsmanship and culinary skills. The cafe recognizes the nuances involved in Shimane produce such as rice which it uses for its extremely popular, seasonal lunch menus musubi zen and nigiri zen. Musubi zen consists of a main fish or meat dish while nigiri showcases vegetable nigiri sushi. Both courses come with accompaniments including vegetables, pickles and miso soup. The ingredients at Re:gendo are sourced locally in Toyo or from Shimane. The cafe also does a fine collection of sweets (Shimane folk are particularly fond of wagashi or traditional Japanese confectionery). The apparel and crafts section, situated on the first floor adjacent to the cafe includes a range of arts and crafts from Shimane and a curated fashion line which uses a type of non-toxic dye from Shimane so it’s safer for pregnant women or customers with allergies. The second floor hosts regular workshops about local craftsmanship and cuisine. Visitors from all over the world come and participate in workshops and learn the intricacies involved in Shimane’s abundance of specialities. Re:gendo acts, then, as a local hub and a popular attraction for many of Tokyo’s Shimane transplants. Refined, cultured, respectful of ancient traditions and friendly, it should be considered an essential stop on any visit to Nishi-Ogikubo.

Look Street

Look Street

One of Koenji's several bustling and popular shotengai, Look Street serves as a topographical through point between JR Koenji Station and Shin-Koenji metro station. Coming in at a whopping 660 meters, Look Street has become a destination for vintage lovers and coffeeholics, and offers a window into the world of Koenji's subcultural heritage. Look Street is tranquil and unassuming during day time and weekdays but thriving at weekends and illuminated at night creating a romantic and serene ambience. Located to the south of PAL shopping street and running straight up to Shin-Koenji, it's a real gem of a shopping district. With an abundance of vintage shops serving a myriad of styles, customers try out stores such as Lover Soul, SLUT and hidden gem Reverie Emporium for steampunk apparel and curiosities. There is also a slight preoccupation with Americana on Look Street so, naturally, suits those interested in rockabilly, 50s America and music from the last century. Try the wonderfully eccentric Pocket 57 on one backstreet. There is also a healthy selection of small, independently owned coffee stores (such as Honohono and Coffee Amp) that roast their own beans and serve a wide choice of edibles too. Whale meat isn't too popular in most countries but Koenji's Look Street has a charming and unassuming restaurant named Jinbe with a very friendly and charismatic owner. Whale meat has become something of a delicacy in Japan which has been consumed since centuries ago. Remake shops are especially popular with foreign visitors and Koenji has a wonderful selection of stores serving this thriving industry as well as handmade mask stores, souvenir shops and quirky knick-knack boutiques. It's a popular area for students and ladies looking for something special and unique to wear. Families and kids can seek a bit of tranquillity and quirkiness, something to see and something to share too. Look Street, then, is a community. A group of people sharing their passions, be it fashion, coffee or subculture. It's a warm and kind area of Tokyo and the collective spirit is very much evident in Look Street with its cheerful and helpful shop staff, chefs and community organization who take a great deal of pride in the street and want nothing else than to serve the local community and keep Look Street alive for decades to come.

Asagaya Shinmeigu Shrine

Asagaya Shinmeigu Shrine (阿佐ヶ谷神明宮) is a real gem of a shrine just a few minutes walk from the north exit of JR Asagaya Station. It's also one of Asagaya's most popular cherry blossom viewing sites and the shrine holds an annual festival, Kan-okai, where dances and songs are performed by shrine members, attracting crowds of people due to its popularity. Shinmeigu also has a long history and is said to date back over 1,000 years and is dedicated to the sun goddess Amaterasu. It's incredibly spacious and picturesque and many visitors will be surprised to find such an expanse of space only 10 minutes from Shinjuku on the Chuo Line. The shrine grounds also plays host to a nohgakudo (a noh theater) where dances and performances are held. It's a stunning structure in itself but when placed inside the grounds of such an historic and beautiful shrine it transforms into something more. A mirror of Japanese culture and tradition and an integral part of Japanese history and society. Like most shrines, there are various structures and spaces used for various rituals and it's a good idea to take your time and walk and appreciate the tranquility and total beauty of Shinmeigu Shrine. Before you leave, consider buying some popular souvenirs like Kamimusubi (straps) or other limited-time items.
