Nakameguro Canal Walk
Everyone photographs the canal. I walk the streets one block east — that's where the density of music-adjacent spaces concentrates and where the neighborhood actually lives.
Tokyo's most photographed canal, but the record shops and bars one block back from the tourist path are the real point. The water is just orientation.
