Photo Gallery: Ebara Area Spots to Explore

Musashi-Koyama Shopping District Palm
In front of Musashi-Koyama Station
The Musashi-Koyama shopping district—often affectionately called “Palm”—is home to 250 shops, and stretches for 800 meters. When Palm was completed in 1956, it was considered the longest shopping arcade in the East.

Koyama Hachiman-jinja Shrine
7-5-14 Ebara
This location was reportedly already a place of worship by the Kamakura Period (1185–1333), and you can sense its history. Back behind the main hall to the left is a hall dedicated to Daikokuten, one of the Seven Lucky Gods.

Togoshi-Ginza Shopping District
Around Togoshi-Ginza Station
Covering about 1.3 kilometers, this shopping area houses 400 shops. This area is great for “eating walks” in which you can enjoy cheap-but-delicious everyday foods such as croquettes.

Cherry Blossoms along Tachiai-doro Street
This is a perfect spot to view cherry blossoms, stretching for about 1 kilometer from Showa University Hospital to Nishi-Koyama Station. When spring comes, the Yoshino cherry trees flanking both sides of the road create a tunnel of cherry blossoms and virtually paint the street pink.
