A rambling district of boutiques and restaurants spreads north of the station with something for everyone. But the focal point of the neighborhood is undoubtedly Inokashira Park, to the south. The sheer amount of tree cover in this lovely green space sets it apart from Tokyo’s other big parks such as those in Ueno or Yoyogi. And on weekends, local artists hawk their handmade wares (jewelry, paintings, photographs, etc.) and performers put on shows. It’s also home to the popular Ghibli Museum, a whimsical ode to anime director Hayao Miyazaki’s creative vision.
