A cafe in Akihabara- most Japanese cafes are really this tiny
A cafe in Akihabara district of Tokyo- most Japanese cafes all over Japan are really this tiny, even smaller in areas like Shibuya as we will see tomorrow. (see subsequent pictures later in this album). Akihabara, also called Akiba after a former local shrine, is a district in central Tokyo that is famous for its many electronics shops. In more recent years, Akihabara has gained recognition as the center of Japan's otaku (diehard fan) culture, and many shops and establishments devoted to anime and manga are now dispersed among the electronic stores in the district. On Sundays, Chuo Dori, the main street through the district, is closed to car traffic from 13:00 to 18:00 (until 17:00 from October through March). (Tokyo, Japan, Apr/ May 2019)
