Akihabara is a household name for many visitors to Japan.
The neighborhood offers everything for fans of anime, manga, games, electronics or other special interest groups.
A visit is definitely recommended:
- Browse stores with collectible figures
- Play in multi-storey arcades with arcade games, VR or classic bowling.
- Who wants to try it out: Maid Cafe
- Or an interesting experience: visiting a sex shop.

In the evening, it becomes clear why Akihabara is called "Electric Town".

Akihabara (秋葉原), also called Akiba, after a former local shrine, is a district in central Tokyo that is known for its many electronics stores. Akihabara has become the center of Japanese otaku culture in recent years, and many shops and facilities dealing with anime and manga are now spread across the district's electronics stores. Akihabara has undergone extensive renovation over the years, including the renovation and expansion of Akihabara station and the construction of new buildings nearby. These newly opened buildings included a huge Yodobashi electronics store and Akihabara Crossfield, a business complex designed to promote Akihabara as a center for global electronics technology and commerce.
