I think a pictorial post on my all-time fav place in Tokyo is apt because Shimokitazawa is such a picturesque and beautiful neighborhood. It is often described as the bohemian, laid-back and hipster secret of bustling Tokyo, so if you like the sound of that, you can probably spend a whole day here. There are cafes, boutiques, thrift shops, kitchenware and home-furnishing shops, florists, restaurants, etc. I would want to live in this neighborhood if I ever move to Japan! :)
Getting to Shimokitazawa
Coming from Shinjuku, take an express train on the Odakyu line and get off at the second stop (7 minutes, ￥160). From Shibuya, get on an express train on the Keio Inokashira line and get off at the first stop (3 minutes, ￥130).
