Kamiya Bar, Historical bar in Asakusa, Japan
The bar interior features bright lighting and Formica tables across two floors, with a restaurant section on the upper level of the building.
Kamiya Denbei established this western-style bar in 1880, making it the first of its kind in Tokyo during the Meiji period modernization.
Literary figures such as Osamu Dazai and Tayama Katai frequented this establishment, which earned recognition as a Registered Tangible Cultural Property of Japan.
The establishment operates from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM with last orders at 8:30 PM, located one minute from Asakusa Station on multiple subway lines.
The bar created Denki Bran, a signature cocktail combining brandy, gin, wine, and herbs that gained popularity for its reported cholera prevention properties.
