About Aobadai
Where to stay in Aobadai
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Aobadai keeps to four chōme of streets, so the reasons to book sit a short walk beyond them, among them Bunkamura, the Shoto Museum of Art, and the Toguri Museum of Art. Four chōme leave little room for hotels. Visitors after the Tokyo Anime Center or SHIBUYA SKY often stay closer to those doors, and Aobadai reads as the calmer alternative for anyone happy to walk.
About Aobadai
What are the main landmarks in Aobadai?
Bunkamura anchors the list. The Bunkamura Museum of Art shares that name, and the Shoto Museum of Art, the Toguri Museum of Art, and the Museum of Imaginary Narrative Arts push the gallery count higher within a short walk of the district edge. SHIBUYA SKY and the Tokyo Anime Center answer different appetites.
The archaeological site recorded as 東山貝塚遺跡 sits among them.
What is the history of Aobadai?
Aobadai took its name in 1966. The ground beneath it runs far older, since the archaeological site recorded as 東山貝塚遺跡 counts among the landmarks tied to this part of Meguro, in Tokyo. Four chōme carry the district.
Its record as a named district stays short beside that.
Where is Aobadai?
