Kagurazaka Guide - https://tokyocheapo.com/locations/central-tokyo/kagurazaka/ Patricia - https://www.instagram.com/whatthepato || @whatthepato Shot & produced by https://www.instagram.com/anocam_ || @Anocam 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. == CHAPTERS == 00:00 Intro 00:25 1 - Akagi Shrine 01:16 2 - Geisha District 01:45 3 - Souvenir hunting 02:03 4 - La Kagu 02:42 5 - Gojuban 03:17 6 - Rakuzan - Japanese tea store 04:01 7 - Kagurazaka Dori - Get off of your phone and explore! 04:25 8 - Zenkoku-ji Temple 04:56 9 - Bake neko festival 05:32 10 - Kagurazaka Street Stage O-edo Tour 06:06 Do you need a Japanese phone number? 07:02 11 - Geisha Komichi 07:37 12 - French bakeries 08:02 13 - Le Bretagne Creperie 08:29 14 - Noren Kagurazaka (Souvenirs) 08:48 15 - Canal Cafe - Tea and gelato with a view 10:45 Outro Get more out of #Tokyo for less, watch Tokyo Cheapo every week!
