At a Glance
Nakameguro is a residential district in Meguro Ward, Tokyo, popular for its boutiques and cafes. The Meguro River runs through it, and the stretch from Nakameguro toward Ikejiri-Ōhashi is lined with cherry trees that draw crowds for hanami. Nakameguro Station, on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line and Tokyu Toyoko Line, sits in neighboring Kami-Meguro, so the name is often used for a wider area.
Small cafes, fashion shops and general goods stores line the river, many run by young owners, and the area is taking on a character similar to nearby Daikanyama. Yūtenji, a Pure Land Buddhist temple built in 1718, stands at the eastern edge of the district. The area was once farmland and small industry, including the brewing of the beer later sold as Yebisu.
