A popular bakery

Want to try out multiple bread but hesitate to buy a loaf bc you're traveling? Order an entree at the upstairs Cafe; they come with assortment in a bread basket and it's bottomless. I ordered a passion fruit mousse tart. The portions or the size of things are good. The texture is just right. It managed the fine balance of acidity and sweetness. Mouthfeel was light and pleasant. The tart was about 700 yen but it’s reasonable for the entire experience. I think it is worth trying. #japantrip #bakery #kyoto

Capybara and Cat Interaction! A Beautiful and Highly Recommended Animal Cafe in Kichijoji.

At the Capyneko Cafe in Kichijoji, you can interact with both capybaras and cats! It's quite popular and only allows about four groups per session, so reservations are a must! I've been to many animal cafes, but this one is by far the best in terms of cleanliness! The inside is very clean, and there was no smell from the cats at all! There is only one large capybara, so each group takes turns to interact with it. The cats are very friendly and you can hold them as much as you want! With fewer people, a very clean environment, and animals that are used to humans, it was a lot of fun 😊 It costs 2,200 yen per adult for one hour, but it includes a drink, so it's quite cost-effective! Capyneko Cafe Kichijoji

Fairy-tale-like Kichijoji

Kichijoji is the most livable area. When I was a child, there was a manga called Kichijoji Coffee House. I have always longed for Kichijoji. This time I went to hattifnatt. Many mothers brought their children. The whole store is very whimsical. I strolled all the way to the cat cafe. It felt like the fairy-tale world of Totoro.

#100WaysOfTravel #tokyo #japan #summervacation We found this incredible cat caffee in a quiet and incredible zone of Tokyo. It was really cozy and the food tasted great.

Recognition Tokyo Water Pig: Capy Neko Cafe

Capy Neko Cafe Address: 1-5-10 PLATANO 2F, Kichijoji Minamachi, Musashino City, Tokyo Business hours: 10:00-20:00 Fees: Admission fee: 2,800 yen for adults, 1,500 yen for children under 14 years old (50 minutes) Capy Neko Cafe, located in Kichijoji Minamachi, Musashino City, Tokyo, is a unique concept store that combines a cafe and a capybara house. This store opened in 2018 and was founded by the owner who loves animals. It aims to provide a space where customers can interact with the cute capybaras up close. As one of the few capybara-themed coffee shops in Tokyo, Capy Neko Cafe feels like a "hidden version" in Kichijoji, an area full of literary and youthful atmosphere. The store is not big, but it is carefully decorated into a warm and comfortable space, with capybaras and cats everywhere. This is not only a cafe, but also a paradise for capybaras and cats. ## Super cute Capybara When you walk into the store, the first thing you see is a lively and cute coffee shop ace - Mr. Capybara, playing leisurely in the center of the store. Capybaras are very cute small mammals. They are usually small in size, have short limbs, and have a pair of big round eyes that make people want to reach out and pet them. In the Capy Neko Cafe, you can see and interact with capybaras up close and feel their unique charm. ## The feeling of being surrounded by cute cats In addition to capybaras, another highlight of Capy Neko Cafe is the cute stray cats in the store. These cats are also adopted from animal rescue centers and enjoy a comfortable living environment here. They may lie lazily in the corner and take a nap, or they may interact with guests curiously, as if to tell you: Welcome to my territory! At Capy Neko Cafe, in addition to close contact with animals, you can also taste the unique atmosphere here. The café environment is warm and comfortable, allowing you to relax and add a touch of surprise to your journey. ## Zero barrier contact with capybara, hand feeding The biggest feature of Capy Neko Cafe is that it allows guests to interact with capybaras without any barriers. Here, you can hand-feed the capybaras under the guidance of the store staff and feel their soft fur and moist noses. This personal experience was unforgettable and deepened our understanding of this lovely creature. I spent an unforgettable afternoon at Capy Neko Cafe. It is a rare experience to be surrounded by cute capybaras and cats and feel their intimate interaction. This coffee shop not only provides unique interactive entertainment, but also arouses people's attention to animal welfare to some extent. I sincerely recommend this healing Capybara Cafe, where you will definitely have a pleasant and unforgettable time.

Kichijoji Petit Mura

Inokashira Park Zoo

#thingstodo Really relaxing place that has a small town community park feel blended with a zoo. Due to this more open layout, you are free to explore the various exhibits how you like, which means you do need to keep track of where you went/what you saw if you want to see it all. Many other zoos have set walking paths that kind of guide you through much of those zoo exhibits to a certain degree. Plentiful large seating, shade, and play areas, even a mini amusement park. The tickets were very affordable and cover both the zoo and the aquatic life park

Inokashira Park Zoo

#2024wish We spend a delightful day at the Park and Zoo. The zoo is close to the train station. The weather was perfect, and the exhibits were great. There was no wait to get into the zoo. They have plenty of public bathrooms and vending machines. Highly recommend this if you're in the area. Very nice...... In 2024, I want to travel more with my friends and family.

Gessōji Temple, Musashino Kichijoji Tokyo 🇯🇵

#schoolholidays We decided to visit Gessōji temple in Musashino Kichijoji, Tokyo, when we chanced upon it while exploring Kichijoji, and it was very interesting. This is a peaceful Buddhist temple just a stone’s throw from the shopping street and offered a different perspective from the other temples in Japan. The temple provides a quiet retreat from the bustling streets, all of us, kids included, enjoyed the visit! My rating of this attraction: 4 ⭐️ out of 5!

This adorable village is for cat lovers!

At first, I thought Kichijōji Petit Mura was just a cat cafe, but after arriving here I realized that the whole area is actually a fairytale village. It has narrow alleyways, wooden facades, and cozy storefronts, offering a refreshing contrast to the bustling cityscape of Tokyo. Inside the village, there is a cat cafe that serves desserts and coffee. There are 4 or 5 different breeds of cats, and they are all very cute! Upstairs of the cafe is a grocery store selling all kinds of handmade items, including canvas bags, dolls, and tableware. If you are a cat person, this place is a must-visit! 🐱 Kichijōji Petit Mura 📍 2 Chome-33-2 Kichijoji Honcho, Musashino, Tokyo 180-0004 Opening Hours: Weekdays: 11am - 8pm Weekends and holidays: 10am - 8pm

Standing sushi bar

Address - Uogashi Nihon-Ichi Standing Sushi Bar, 2 Chome-9-1 Dogenzaka, Shibuya City, Tokyo 150-0043, Japan This inconspicuous standing sushi bar served my friends and I some of the best sushi we’ve ever tasted. When we entered, the restaurant space was small and packed with customers, it really felt like an eat-and-go kind of restaurant. The chefs were right in front of us crafting each piece of sushi before serving it on a green long leaf in front of us. Everything tasted really good and it was fairly affordable too. My overall rating of the experience: 5 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #meettokyo #tripmoments #restaurant #japanesecuisine #sushi #musteat #tokyo #japan

INOGASHIRA park is located in tokyo. inogasshira park is very beautiful and verybig park located in urban.

The cherry blossoms are full of beautiful branches, and the season of cherry blossoms has a different flavor. Picnic under the tree is not bad, but riding in the lane full of cherry blossoms is a pleasure, feeling the cherry blossoms drifting from the side, so beautiful! There are not many people on the bicycle path, the slope is gentle and the road is wide, it is suitable for novices! Get on the bike!
