Ueno Okachimachi's dopamine is the colorful human fireworks

🌟 Okachimachi, a part of Tokyo's Ueno, is a condensed place of bustling street scenes and everyday life. Every time I pass by, there is a different landscape. 👍 Because my home is nearby, it only takes a short ten-minute walk to get here. From the noisy crowd and speeding cars at Ueno Station to the densely packed shops with human fireworks in Okachimachi, the scenery along the way changes constantly, but what remains unchanged is the love of the people here. ❤ The Okachimachi area includes the Ameyoko Shopping Street and several crisscrossing side streets. From the first ray of sunlight in the early morning shining here, a day of human fireworks begins. As night falls, people who can no longer bear the hunger and craving for alcohol start to gather here. 🍽 Most shops gradually close for rest amidst the endless stream of diners, leaving only a few waiting for the last customers to leave. The crowd in the shopping street also disperses, leaving behind the hardworking voices between shops. Occasionally, there will be drunken truths, curses, and laughter. With the extinguishing of the last light, it is already the early hours of the next day, and Okachimachi enters a brief rest to welcome the dawn of a new day. 🍲 At any time, Okachimachi represents the human fireworks, the lively life of the common people of Ueno Shitamachi. If you have the chance to visit Tokyo, be sure to walk around Okachimachi and feel this market life that makes even winter days hot.
