- Book Synopsis
- Tokyo is a city like no other, a looming contemporary metropolis where every turn is a new adventure. There are bright lights and neon, bars under railway bridges, Michelin ramen and sushi, tech, toys and vintage shopping. In a compact, light paperback format perfect for slipping into your back pocket, Tokyo Pocket Precincts is your curated guide to the city's most interesting cultural, shopping, eating and drinking experiences. Divided into separate precincts, each section lists the best shops, restaurants, bars and sights to see in the area, from your morning coffee to your evening on the town. The guide covers Shibuya, Yoyogi, Harajuku, Aoyama, Roppongi, Ginza, Tokyo Station, Akihabara, Ueno, Asakusa & Yanaka, Shinjuku, Koenji, Kichijoji, Shimokitazawa, Ebisu, Daikanyama & Nakameguro, and Meguro. Also included is a selection of 'field trips' to encourage you to explore outside the city, including Nikko, Hakone, Mount Takao, and the cute 'Eno-den' train from Kamakura to Enoshima and Fujisawa.
