School buildings and dormitories located in the heart of Tokyo. A town overflowing with Japanese culture and atmosphere.
Nippori, where the Akamonkai Japanese Language School is located, is a very appealing area which features very modern scenery as a result of recent redevelopment. The Nippori area includes the "Yanaka Ginza" shopping district where visitors can still get a glimpse of the way the area once looked, the "Yanaka Cemetery" with its beautiful rows of cherry blossoms, and the "Seni Tonyagai" area, where individuals looking to work in the fashion industry gather.
Nippori Station, the closest station, provides excellent access to both central Tokyo and the suburbs, and is directly accessible by the JR, Keisei Main Line and the Nippori-Toneri Liner. Travel from Nippori to Narita Airport is possible in 36 minutes using the Keisei Skyliner.
We took up "Scenery of Nippori" as a theme of the 2nd Akamonkai Photography Contest.
