Culture & Hobbies

Shimokitazawa is known as a fashion hub, with many second-hand clothing stores.
I’ve divided the fashion area into two main sections.
To explore more, search for ‘古着屋’ (used clothing stores) on Google Maps.
The area also features fascinating non-fashion shops, offering plenty to discover.

This is one of the best hobby shop especially for scale models.
There are plastic models on the first floor and figures on the second floor.
Here is very small, so come with one or two people only.
Cash recommended.
