Tokyo / River

Tama River is located in the outskirts of west Tokyo. A large waterfall located upstream, and the cold water is surprisingly clear. There, you will find a wonderful landscape no identical to any of those you see today. At the same time, you will forget the fact that you are in Tokyo.

Tokyo / Bookstore

Citylight Book at Yoyogi-uehara is the type of independent bookstore where I would wish to hang every week. It opens in the afternoon and runs through late night as a bookstore, as well as a meet-up place, a bar for book lovers. Founded by Kaminaga-san, a veteran who had worked with publishing industry for many years before creating his own version of bookstore, this is a cool place to browse for new titles of books and magazines of a wide range of genres/topics. The second floor works as a nice study room too. CABO, the mix place where the bookstore is located also offers other original selection of snack bar and fine dining. You can easily drift in and out, encountering interesting souls in the hood. I had a book launch and talk event here in May, 2024. It's been such a wonderful experience, good crowd and good vibes only!

Tokyo / Museum

Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art is located in Sakura, Chiba Prefecture. It has a wide collections, from Rembrandt to Mark Rothko and Barnett Newman. In the past, there have been exhibitions of famous artists like Gerhard Richter. It's not just that it has a wonderful collection, but also that structure of the building shows the paintings and sculptures in a way that lets you consider freely whether or not they are great. Around the museum there is space to stroll, and some shopping. It's a place you can enjoy without getting tired. The museum is approx 50 min from Tokyo.

Tokyo / Market

The Tsukiji Market ( Chuo-ku ) If you want to eat Sushi, you should go to Tsukiji not Ginza. This is the biggest market in the world. You can get better quality fish than anywhere else. The auction and cleaning of big fish are worth seeing. I aways come by the first train, take some photo, eat rice bowl dishes.
