If you like parks, Inokashira park is very active especially on weekends, bustling with vendors, musicians, artists, and street performers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like shopping, there&#8217;s lots of it to be had. If you like restaurants, eat your heart out. If you like drinking, the after-work scene is thriving. You can have all of these in the greater Kichijoji neighbourhood, or within Harmonica Alley itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-2-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"Harmonica Alley shopping - modern and old-world\" class=\"wp-image-9520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-2-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br \/>Accommodation in Kichijoji<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Kichijoji is a fabulous area to base your stay in Tokyo. It has a little bit of everything, and it&#8217;s right on the metro with many lines intersecting here so it&#8217;s easy to get anywhere in Tokyo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out this map to find your accommodation in Kichijoji, or zoom out to see other areas of Tokyo.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ins class=\"bookingaff\" data-aid=\"2060069\" data-target_aid=\"2060069\" data-prod=\"map\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"590\" data-lang=\"ualng\" data-dest_id=\"0\" data-dest_type=\"landmark\" data-latitude=\"35.704096\" data-longitude=\"139.5802054\" data-landmark_name=\"Kichij\u014dji, Tokyo\" data-mwhsb=\"0\" data-address=\"Kichij\u014dji\">\n    <!-- Anything inside will go away once widget is loaded. -->\n        <a href=\"\/\/www.booking.com?aid=2060069\">Booking.com<\/a>\n<\/ins>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    (function(d, sc, u) {\n      var s = d.createElement(sc), p = d.getElementsByTagName(sc)[0];\n      s.type = 'text\/javascript';\n      s.async = true;\n      s.src = u + '?v=' + (+new Date());\n      p.parentNode.insertBefore(s,p);\n      })(document, 'script', '\/\/aff.bstatic.com\/static\/affiliate_base\/js\/flexiproduct.js');\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br \/>Harmonica Alley<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Harmonica Alley itself earns its moniker by virtue of the many small dark entrances off the main streets into this maze of alleyways. If you can get a wide enough perspective on it, these alleyway entrances resemble the mouthpiece of a harmonica. It&#8217;s a bit of a stretch, but if you tilt your head and squint, you can get the idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonical-alley-entrance-alleys-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"Entrances to Harmonica Alleys\" class=\"wp-image-9521\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonical-alley-entrance-alleys-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonical-alley-entrance-alleys-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonical-alley-entrance-alleys-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonical-alley-entrance-alleys.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p>Harmonica Alley started off as a post-war black market, and as such continues to have a flavour of friendly adversity. Today, you&#8217;ll find shops, restaurants, bakeries, bars, and fortune tellers. The hanging red lanterns in front of many establishments along the dark narrow laneways make for a very old-world feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-7-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"Harmonica Alley old world feel\" class=\"wp-image-9522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-7-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-7-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-7-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/harmonica-7.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p>If you really want to get the most of the experience, the best time of day to visit is as it&#8217;s getting dark. This is when it takes on an other-worldly ambiance, and also when most establishments will be open. I visited (for my first time) in the early afternoon and about a third of the places were closed, so although not disappointed, I didn&#8217;t really feel I got the full experience.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explore Tokyo&#8217;s Harmonica Alley With Me!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out this video to see the magic and fun of Harmonica Alley yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Harmonica Alley in Tokyo (Vlog Ep. 10)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8FRyXlEyl8g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Can&#8217;t see this video?
