Red light district and Japan themed neighborhood with Japanese restaurants, bars, decor, and establishments. There are a lot of restaurants here and many highly rated. If anything, visit so you can go have a delicious meal! We ate at Me-Tetsu Izakaya and I highly recommend it. For the sake of experiencing the area, GO! Why not? It’s fun and an experience. The streets are also beautiful with the lanterns making it quite picture-worthy. I went with my boyfriend and we were not targeted at all by the “sellers.” (If you are a single/group of males this would be a different story). So we were able to enjoy walking around freely, taking photos and getting lost around the winding alleyway. It’s just like any red light district experience in Thailand, etc except more tame and the food options here are actually good haha.

A very interesting place where it is mostly Japanese themed establishments i.e. bars and restaurants and other facilities such as karaoke 🎤 and massage parlours. Plenty of entertainment for the gentlemen ... An eye 👀👁️👀 opener for the uninitiated 😅 ... Catered for mostly foreign tourists from Japan 🗾, Korea, Chinese and English speaking tourist. Can be an expensive night with lots of eye popping experiences like you've never seen before. I just walked around admiring the scenery of what it had to offer. Food and drinks are cheap here but other entertainment can cost more if you're willing to venture down that rabbit hole 🕳️⛳🕳️. Suggest going in a group in case you get lost in the maze of alleyways

There are a lot of japanese restaurants here, you can park your motorcycles inside the streets. Most of the bars open at 7 pm and later. Before 7 pm there are mostly just restaurants. There were 4 massages with the same name, even though the government has signs that state they are not allowed to approach people to invite customers in, or stand around on the street but they still do that. One of the workers at the massage place yelled at us "No picture" even though we are not pointing the camera at them or taking their pictures at all.

Yeah really pure red district area with majority girly bar and massage. There are few Japanese restaurants but whole place is full of girls for men. Even we like bar but I don't dare to go into this bar. They even so aggressively pull you in just for drinks. That was bad in my opinion. Tips: Take and try at your own risk. Believe not all is bad but hard to choose and pick the right one.

It a small area, probably 2 by 3 blocks with alleys where you can find different types of Japanese dining choices - ramen, tonkatsu, tempura, sushi, etc. There is a small Japanese grocery store. One of the more popular restaurant is Ippudo - located on the outer part of the Japan Town. It's a couple blocks from Vincom Center or Opera House.

Very small quarter with Japanese restaurant and cafés - just FYI which are not necessarily all run by Japanese people. We came in the afternoon to look around and visited a café. The restaurants mostly open in the evening so I'd recommend to come later in the evening if you wanna eat something here.
