► Kawasaki is a “small city” with a population of 1.5 million, that is squeezed in between the megacities of Tokyo and Yokohama.

A few years ago, it had a reputation of being a boring “bedtown” with nothing much to do. Recently, that has all changed, and apart from Japanese restaurants and shops offering traditional Japanese goods, Kawasaki also has a european neighbourhood, which offers primarily italian and french cuisine. On top of that, there’s also a really good, huge outlet mall of the kind you’d expect to find in the U.S.

Kawasaki City can be easily reached from Tokyo, just 15 minutes by train from Shingawa Station by Keihin Tohoku Line. – Enjoy!
