“Even though I want to visit Tokyo every time I go to Japan, it seems like I’ve already been to all the famous spots...” If you’re a Tokyo fan who’s ever felt this way, listen up! The non-profit organization Tokyo Convention & Visitors Bureau has launched a brand-new feature on its official Facebook fan page ‘Tokyo Fan Club’ — the “DEEP TOKYO PROJECT.” With the concept of “Discovering a new Tokyo,” the project specially invites Taiwanese people living in Tokyo to introduce their favorite local hidden gems.

The “DEEP TOKYO PROJECT” is divided into eight different areas for introduction. The first installment features “Sugamo Jizo Dori Shopping Street,” known as the “Harajuku for Ojisan and Obasan (middle-aged and elderly people)” and beloved by Japan’s elderly population. Here you can enjoy a wide variety of traditional Japanese street foods, indulging in an experience akin to visiting a night market in Taiwan—stopping at one eatery after another. You can also pick up various small goods and daily items, ensuring that visitors of all ages can find something to enjoy.

Don’t worry if your Japanese isn’t good—just gather the courage to chat with the local shop owners. Even a smile or some gestures will be met with warm responses from the residents. In fact, such shopping streets are very popular among Japanese people and can be found all over the country. In this “DEEP TOKYO PROJECT,” we’ll also introduce other authentic Japanese shopping streets like Ningyocho and Togoshi Ginza.

 
In addition, the “DEEP TOKYO PROJECT” will showcase Tokyo’s hidden specialty shops and the latest popular attractions. The second installment in Kichijoji will feature anime-themed cafés and traditional English tea specialty stores. For a stroll around Roppongi, it will highlight the newly opened One Piece theme park “Tokyo ONE PIECE TOWER” in March 2015. Popular new Tokyo spots recommended by Taiwanese residents in Japan are all revealed in this “DEEP TOKYO PROJECT”!
