Kōenji is Tokyo's scruffy, creative heart for vintage fashion, punk and indie music, with dozens of second-hand shops, record stores, live houses and cheap izakaya packed into the lanes around the station. It's cheap, characterful and refreshingly untouristy. Best browsed on a slow afternoon into the evening.
