Here’s a simple overview: Tiny bars in narrow alleys: There are over 200 bars, most with space for only a handful of customers. Unique themes: Many bars are themed around music, art, film, or literature, often reflecting the owner’s personal interests. Old Tokyo atmosphere: Despite growing popularity among tourists, Golden Gai still maintains a nostalgic, Showa-era vibe. Regulars and newcomers: Some bars cater mainly to locals and regulars, while others welcome tourists and first-time visitors.
