Nishi Nippori Tokyo | along the Yamanote Line | Travel Japan


Nishi-Nippori Station is located in the Arakawa Ward of Tokyo, this is a video in the series along the Yamanote line, Travel Japan Tips


The Arakawa Ward has many attractions but today I just show you the area around Nishi Nippori


The Yamanote line goes in a circle through Tokyo and it is the easiest to remember connecting major Tourist spots in Tokyo. Some stations are more attractive than others. Today, we take a look at Nishi Nippori station, which is basically an extension to the Nippori Station which I will do in my next video. At this travel hub many train & subway lines are crossing. 


The famous writer and doctor Mori Ogai Memorial Museum is located at the border of Nishi Nippori and Nippori Station.

In reality Nishi Nippori is not known for much but a few meter further it looks much more attractive, so let’s wait for next weeks episode. For today I like to show you the Nishi Nippori area and the small Nishi Nippori Park which has has information walls featuring the artist Hasegawa Settan and his 7 paintings during the Edo Period of this area. i


It is said, that during the Edo period you could see the mountains of Tsukuba und Nikko.  It was also rich in medicinal herbs and was visited by many people. This park was opened in 1961.


Apparently you could see diamond Fuji on the 30. January and 11th of October here, I am not sure if this is still possible.


I hope this video was of any interest of yours and I wish you a good day, see you in my next video.
