A Chill Weekend in Myogadani, Bunkyo City, Tokyo

#cityplaybook Looking for a quiet, green escape in Tokyo? The Myogadani and Gokokuji area in Bunkyo City is the perfect spot. Known as an academic district filled with prestigious schools and peaceful streets, this neighborhood is rich in nature and culture—with easy access to both Ikebukuro and Korakuen. 10:00 🥞 Brunch at Nutty’s Caff Meeting up with a friend for a relaxed brunch. Don’t miss their pancakes—they’re fluffy, buttery, and absolutely delicious! 12:00 🌳 Walk through Kyoiku-no-mori Park This lovely park is full of greenery. A perfect place to slow down and breathe in some fresh air. 14:00 ⛩️ Visit Gokokuji Temple A peaceful spot with history and charm—just a short stroll away. 16:00 🏨 Check-in at Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo Stepping into the beautiful room feels like a mini getaway within the city. Total luxury. 18:00 🍜 Dinner at MENSHO Wrap up your day with a bowl of their famous soy sauce ramen—rich, flavorful, and soul-warming. Why I recommend Myogadani: ・It’s a quiet, green area with seasonal beauty year-round ・You’ll get a true local vibe without the tourist crowds 📍Bunkyo City, Tokyo #myogadani #bunkyocity #tokyo #japan #hiddentokyo #localtokyo #chillweekend #tokyoeats #templevibes #cityguide
