“I agree with all comments above”
I like the town. It is atmospheric and still lingering the 60' era of Tokyo .
However, as some said, it might be a bit difficult to find a good bar for tourists . We need to avoid the traps. If you could find a nice bar, the town will be comfortable place. Small advice for tourists, photos are not permitted in Golden Gai, generally. You can be asked for a charge if they found it. I hope you enjoy the town safely since the town is attractive enough!
