#tokyotrip When it comes to the virtual world of 2-D, nothing beats the Japanese anime production which is the best in the world. And to fully immerse onto it, Akihabara is the very place as the Mecca of the Otakus ( which means a person super obsessed to virtual world who never or seldom comes out from it). The whole stretch of street mainly comprises of themed based anime shops, glass case for those who wishes to sell their goods and merchandises, and figurines shops for hard core fans. There you can also see many cos-players mimicking characters from animes, and the street is completely closed for vehicles on weekends. Besides, there are also maid cafes operating at various corners for those who wanted to have the experience of being served by waitresses dressed in "maid" costumes.

Akihabara is the most colorful town of Tokyo. Here is the center of cartoon, figure, game and everything in a Japanese fashion. It is not far from either Ueno or Tokyo station. I believe you can walk from both side and along the way there are many small shops to visit. Also you can easily take a train which has a lot of route pass this station. You can buy every electronic equipments, game and sometime there will be cosplay or concert around here #2023travelwish

The district of Akihabara has an area that is well-known to have many anime stores selling all sorts of tan merchandise. It is also not uncommon to see a number of cosplayers walking around here so that was quite an interesting sight to behold. On top of the usual restaurants and cafes, you can find “maid” cafes, where female wait staff dressed up in maid costumes. Even if you are not an anime fan, you can still enjoy the arcade and claw machines that are abundant in supply. But the main aim is to experience the anime culture and lifestyle of the people and places that make up this unique district! #tokyo

Been to Japan for a few days. It's really a great experience for me. I went to a lot of places in Tokyo (Akihabara, Asakusa, Shinjuku) + Kyoto. Nice people, nice view, and nice environment. Their hospitality is really good, they are really helping even though both of us have language barriers. Am planning to go again probably next year 😅 (or 2024). There are still a lot of places I wanna be. #wintergetaway #urbanexplorer #japan
