Tokyo's most humane shopping street｜Togoshi Ginza-Tokyo in-depth tour

Togoshi Ginza Shotengai 📍 Location Togoshi 1-2, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo It is one of the longest shopping streets in downtown Tokyo, with a total length of about 1.3 kilometers and more than 400 stores selling local cooked food, snacks, and groceries. It is a great place for a stroll in the downtown area full of human touch. ⸻ 🚃 Transportation (from Ningyocho) 1. Take the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line from Ningyocho Station to Ebisu Station 2. Transfer to JR Yamanote Line and get off at Gotanda Station 3. Transfer to the Tokyu Ikegami Line and get off at Togoshi Ginza Station. The entrance to the shopping street is right outside the station. (The whole journey takes about 35 to 40 minutes) ⸻ 📝 Personal experience The atmosphere of Togoshi Ginza Shopping Street is very warm. Unlike the streets crowded with tourists, this is mostly a place where locals come to buy groceries, eat snacks, and take their children for a walk. There are many cute snack shops along the way, such as fried croquettes, oden, and Japanese pan-fried dumplings. The prices are very reasonable. It is the kind of pleasant journey where you can eat while walking. I arrived in the evening that day. The setting sun dyed the entire shopping street golden, and the lights in the shops were turned on, giving the whole street a very lively feel. I also saw many people pushing baskets and choosing fruits. This scene made me feel that it was more warm than any tourist attraction. If you want to find a place that feels very Tokyo but not touristy, Togoshi Ginza is a good choice. #AprilGoodDestinations2025 #日本旅游 #TokyoDeepTour
