Before 2019, the Odakyu Line was running above the ground, and in order to improve traffic congestion,
it was changed to a subway and the city of Shimokitazawa was redeveloped.
I think it would be nice to take a walk in Shimokitazawa, where you can feel the subculture of Japanese youth (clothes, music, art, miscellaneous goods, food, etc.
There are many young people in Shimokitazawa, and the town is full of energy
This is the ticket gate of the Odakyu Line, which was reopened on March 16, 2019
