Akihabara, Tokyo’s electric town. You’ll find giant multi story arcades filled with video games, anime stores, maid cafés, and lots of cute souvenirs. This area is fun, bright, and totally unforgettable. PRO TIP: Akihabara is a popular spot on Sundays as they close off the street from 11am

  • Dive into multi-level gaming centers, anime shops, and quirky souvenir stores.

  • Visit an iconic maid café for a uniquely Akihabara experience.

  • Stop by Takakara Akiba for all-you-can-eat karaage (a delicious Japanese fried chicken and local dish of Tokyo)
