Kichijoji

Not far from the hearts of Tokyo yet accommodating a peaceful residential area, stylish restaurants, and specialty boutiques, Kichijoji consistently tops the rankings of the most popular cities people want to live in Tokyo. There are quite a few tourist spots where you may want to visit such as Inokashira Park and the Ghibli Museum where you can see many Miyazaki animation characters. Another must-visit spot is the "Hamonika Yokocho (harmonica back street)" near the north exit of Mitaka Station, where you find almost one hundred traditional restaurants, bars and other shops. With many hideout restaurants and bars, the Yokocho is very popular for the locals. You must find real Tokyo otherwise you can never know.
