Ogawamachi

Located in the Kanda district of Chiyoda Ward, Ogawamachi is mainly known as the Sporting Goods District of Tokyo. The entire area along Yasukuni Dori, all the way from Ogawamachi Station to Jimbocho Station, is devoted to sporting gear. All kinds of shops selling everything from snowboarding and ski supplies to golf and tennis supplies, and from gears for hikers and campers to gears for surfers and snorkelers can be found in abundance. The area features branches of large sporting goods chains, as well as small specialty stores. Just like the music and book districts of Kanda, although the sporting goods district caters to all age groups, it mainly focuses on what appeals to the youth – mainly because of the large number of schools and universities in the area. People needing sports goods travel all the way to Ogawamachi for good bargains.
