Kabukichō, Entertainment district in Shinjuku, Japan
Located in Tokyo's Shinjuku ward, Kabukichō spans 36 hectares and contains thousands of bars, clubs, restaurants, and entertainment establishments.
The district emerged in 1948 during post-war reconstruction, with initial plans for a kabuki theater that was never built but gave the area its name.
The entertainment complex Kabukicho Tower features 48 floors of dining venues, including the Shinjuku Kabuki Hall with restaurants representing different Japanese prefectures.
The district operates primarily at night, with numerous establishments remaining open until early morning hours and excellent public transportation connections.
The area appears in multiple anime series, including Jujutsu Kaisen, making it a destination for fans seeking real locations from their favorite shows.
