Four Scenes from Itabashi, Tokyo, Japan

東京都・板橋区

A collection of four random scenes from my home ward of Itabashi in Tokyo, Japan. I like to show the lesser-known sides of the big metropolis.

All photos shot with iPhone 6s. Edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.

The first image is the rear side of a building in the Tokiwadai district. A maze of air conditioning units, exhaust chimneys, and a lone window with a red Karaoke (カラオケ) sign.

Next is this spontaneous moment of a man carrying a big white dog in front of a rather dated kiosk. The exact location of this is technically a few meters into Toshima Ward, but it is still “almost Itabashi” and I really wanted to include it in this set.

The next image was taken outside a stonemason’s shop in the Hasunumacho district of Itabashi Ward. A stockpile of rocks and stones, and various carved objects are kept right outside on a street corner.

The last image in this small set was taken in the Kami-Itabashi area. It shows a row of Showa-era shops; I am not entirely sure which if those are still functional.
