In today's video we'll be showing you the side of Shinjuku you've probably never seen before!
Kagurazaka is the last bastion of the geisha (more commonly called maiko in Japanese) in Tokyo. It’s also a quaint neighbourhood on a very human scale that is great for just wandering around. It also claims to have a strong French influence with more French restaurants, patisseries and bakeries than elsewhere in Tokyo. The nature of the area is much more residential than office so there are lots of small quaint shops that have probably been in the same place for 50 years or more.
