Graffiti -An Expression of Street Art in Tokyo

If you are looking to immerse yourself in a city filled with rich history and good vibes, Tokyo is the place to be. The capital of Japan exudes vibrancy through a vast array of avenues. But nothing quite defines the city’s street art like its graffiti.

Nestled in the heart of Tokyo lies Daikanyama – a neighbourhood that stands out from the pack, with eye-catching displays of graffiti. It is a place where ideas and creativity of street artists spring into life, with no-holds barred on the art that lines every inch of the neighbourhood.

Daikanyama is home to a plethora of graffiti work that stems from the imaginative minds of street artists from all over the world. Take a trip down the neighbourhood and one will most definitely be able to view and appreciate different forms of art with brand new perspectives.

Although not widely mentioned in the same breath as other places of interests in Tokyo, the graffiti in Daikanyama still plays an integral role in attracting tourists.

The multitude of art forms can be considered a ‘haven’ for photography aficionados. It provides new photo opportunities for the avid photographer. Apart from that, Daikanyama is also the place where anyone and everyone can tell a story through street art. Venture into the neighbourhood and one can most definitely be inspired to craft new chapters unto its walls.

We change the outlook of a place when we travel. Upon a visit to Daikanyama, we are able to leave behind a work of art we can proudly call our own.
