Kichijoji's Harmonica Alley
Restaurants, bars, fortune tellers, and more than enough photo ops at Kichijoji's Harmonica Alley.
Harmonica Alley Yokocho
Harmonica Allee is located in the trendy area of Kichijoji and is a section of local izakaya bars that are only a few minutes' walk from the train station. The alleys of Harmonica Allee are narrow and at the same time full of life. There you can find fashion, local market traders, which are open during the day, as well as izakayas and pubs that can be visited until late at night.
Since the 1990s, Harmonica Allee has been very popular, especially among the locals, for its stand-up bars with inexpensive snacks in the late evening. The area was named for the way this tight tangle of restaurants, shops, and bars resembles a harmonica.
It can get full quickly, but it definitely never gets uncomfortable!
