Essentials about Kabukichō in brief
If you are looking for entertainment and amusement of all kinds in Tokyo, you should head to Kabukichō. The neighborhood in the Shinjuku district is the center of the Japanese capital’s entertainment and red-light scene. Because of its many hostess bars, love hotels, nightclubs, bars and pubs, Kabukichō is quite rightly nicknamed “the sleepless city”.
Entertainment and amusement in Kabukichō
Kabukichō developed after the end of the World War II from an ordinary residential neighborhood into the red-light district that is now famous far beyond the borders of Japan. The district offers pleasure seekers a variety of entertainment establishments of all kinds: in addition to hostess bars, there are also izakaya (typical Japanese pubs), nightclubs, restaurants, cinemas, karaoke bars, arcades and, above all, numerous love hotels typical of Japan’s big cities. In addition, the district is known for its house facades full of neon signs.
