Tokyo - lesser known, more local

[purpleberry]

Apart from the major stations are the following places worth visiting? I am not sure if visiting one shotengai is sufficient enough. Feel free to add to the list.

Kichijoji
Daikanyama
Nippori (Yanaka Ginza)
Togoshi Ginza
Musashi-Koyama
Toyosu

some shotengais are very unique, like nishiki in Kyoto, tsukiji in tokyo, but most shotengais are pretty much the same... most of them will have one or two unique features but unless you are a shotengai collector, i don't why you would want to go to them all...

Read somewhere that there's a denim street in Tokyo but need to take taxi from the nearest station. Anyone know if there's a similar one?

Just saw an episode of hot springs in central Tokyo. Is that counted?

This is nice! Will add it to my list. Do you know if they offer discounts for older models? Might need to head to Shimokitazawa to hunt around.
