Okazekaku Ookubo/minpaku

Everything else you do in a day starts here.

• Shin-Ōkubo 新大久保5 min · 437 m
• Seibu-Shinjuku 西武新宿8 min · 658 m
• Okubo 大久保8 min · 679 m

Where there is no train, this is the way out. Stops on both sides of one road are counted once.

• Ookubo Ni Choume 大久保二丁目2 min · 135 m
• Ookubo Toori 大久保通り3 min · 233 m

Open late, sells water, food, and usually has an ATM that takes foreign cards.

• FamilyMart ファミリーマート2 min · 135 m
• Lawson ローソン2 min · 150 m

Getting ill is the thing most likely to ruin a trip.

• Sai Shokudou ShinOokubo 2 Gou Branch サウィ食堂 新大久保2号店2 min · 156 m
• Yuni Sumairu Pharmacy Shinjukuten Kyotaku Kaigo Shien Jigyousho ユニスマイル薬局 新宿店 居宅介護支援事業所2 min · 174 m

Matters once you are staying more than a few nights.

• Supermarket 2 min · 157 m
• Asia Superstore 2 min · 176 m

Seven Bank, Lawson Bank, E-net, Aeon and Japan Post accept cards issued outside Japan. Most other Japanese bank ATMs decline them, so they are not counted here. Post offices are counted, because that is where most Japan Post machines are.

• E-net イーネット3 min · 206 m
• Seven Bank セブン銀行3 min · 231 m

Restaurants and fast food. Cafes are not counted — most close before dinner.

• Kokyou 故郷1 min · 48 m
• Ura Minato Sashimi 浦港刺身1 min · 51 m
• Aiken Village Higashi Shinjuku Branch 愛犬ヴィレッジ 東新宿店1 min · 110 m

Somewhere to sit in the morning that is not your room.

• Bam Bi Coffee 1 min · 63 m
• Shinchon Cafe 1 min · 63 m

Attractions, museums, viewpoints, castles and monuments. Ordinary neighbourhood shrines are not counted — Japan has tens of thousands, and counting them would make every street look remarkable.

• KOIZUMI YAKUMO PARK LAFKADIO HEARN 1 min · 32 m
• Korea Museum 高麗博物館2 min · 190 m
• Kaeru Ishi かえる石3 min · 233 m

Often the reason for the trip rather than a convenience.

• thermae-yu 天然温泉;テルマー湯7 min · 599 m

Somewhere to walk that is not a shopping street.

• Koizumi Yakumo Kinen Park 小泉八雲記念公園1 min · 36 m
• Nishi Okubo Park 西大久保公園3 min · 216 m

Shown for information only. About 3,000 are mapped for the whole country against many times that in reality, so a hit here is worth something and a miss means nothing.

Shown for information only. Our sources cover this category unevenly, so a low count here may mean the map is incomplete rather than the area is.

• 신오쿠보플떡랜드 4 min · 309 m
• Bleu Bleuet 9 min · 726 m

Counted as a plus here. A property tool would count the same places as a minus.
