A visit to Nanzuka Underground
Nanzuka Underground
Once housed in a humble underground space, Nanzuka Underground now occupies two floors in the trendy Urahara district. The contemporary art gallery has often served to reintroduce the public to artists of the post-war period, as well as being a launching pad for a new generation of Japanese artists such as Ryuichi Ohira, Haroshi, and Hajime Sorayama.

Nonbei Yoko-cho for dinner
Nonbei Yoko-cho
This Yoko-Cho, or alleyway, just steps from bustling Shibuya, is filled with small bars and izakayas, like Nadaichi. Because most establishments here are quite tiny, it’s best to visit in a small group. Many places will serve an appetizer at a small cost when you first arrive—think of it as a seating fee. The dishes tend to be small; it’s a fun way to sample all sorts of things.
