Hi, I’m Tabi!
Mitaka in Tokyo offers canal-side walks and literary heritage. Start south of the station with a path or museum, combining waterside walking and indoor exhibitions to suit your interests.
This guide covers places within Mitaka, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

Three places to begin
Three places with different atmospheres. Start with the one that appeals to you instead of visiting them all.
01
A first-visit stop
Yuzo Yamamoto Memorial Museum
山本有三記念館
A Western-style former home presenting writer Yuzo Yamamoto’s life and works. The photograph shows the exterior in 2015. Check current closures and visitor rules for exhibitions and gardens.
Getting there Check approaches from south of Mitaka station or Murasakibashi bus stop
A pedestrian route along the south side of Tamagawa Josui canal. Enjoy waterside trees and nearby architecture without entering the water channel or residential private property.
Getting there Check the route toward Mansukebashi from south of Mitaka station
An exhibition space introducing writer Osamu Dazai’s connection with Mitaka. Choose this indoor stop in Shimorenjaku after checking closures and current displays; special events are not permanent features.
Getting there Check the entrance at Shimorenjaku 3-16-14
Mitaka-grown kiwi is a specialty highlighted by Tokyo’s regional-resources guide. Harvest and farm-sales schedules vary, so check current information rather than assuming October availability.
Try south of Mitaka station → Kaze-no-Sanpomichi → the Yamamoto museum area. Add an interior visit using current guidance, choosing the literary salon separately if preferred.
