[Ikebukuro] A Yokocho Street with a Post-war Atmosphere🍻

📍 Sakaemachi Shopping Street
This is one of the few remaining alleys in Ikebukuro. This single, 80-meter-long street is packed with restaurants, izakayas, and snack bars. 🏮 Bustling with cafes and lunches during the day, it transforms into a nightlife hotspot at night, illuminated by lanterns and neon lights. ✨ Four drinking districts originated from black markets immediately after the war and were beloved by locals. 🍻 Remnants of this tradition still remain today, surviving in Sakaemachi Street and Mikuni Koji. 👍 Just walking through this alley gives you a mysterious sense of excitement, and you'll feel as if you've traveled back in time. Unlike the glamour of Sunshine Street, this alley exudes the warmth and humanity of a downtown neighborhood. ✨ A must-see for those looking for a deep night out! ️
Be brave and stroll through this nostalgic world, and you might find something interesting. We recommend you just take a stroll here, even if it's just to experience the atmosphere. The atmosphere is completely different! ️
