Harajuku in Tokyo is famous as a town for young people, but Amerikamura is also famous for its youth culture.
Here, many fashion shops, live studios, and movie theaters gather for the young people.

Sankaku Park crowded with street performances


Amerikamura first began after young designers started to gather at a cafe called “LOOP.”
Today, young comedians and musicians gather and perform around the area.

The name “Amerikamura (America City)” originated from selling American products


When LOOP first opened, the most of the city area was warehouses and parking areas.
After people started to sell vinyl, jeans, and surfboards using the warehouses, the area instantly became popular among the young people.
