todoroki gorge

what are tokyo urbanites do when they need rest from daily hard works? many people, i believe, dont do anything and just stay at home. equally many people seem to go shopping to get more tired. some people go to gigantic parks, such as yoyogi park, to get some natural inspiration, although the parks are literary covered by people and nobody can feel they are in nature. some may go to museum, and some lucky people just leave from tokyo for a few days. 

this time, id love to introduce Todoroki gorge in setagaya ward in tokyo.

todoroki is located in Setagaya ward, which is regarded as the most livable and attractive area of tokyo to live especially for rich people. i prefer to have a great access to a great diversity of tokyo so it really didnt appeal to me before to live at all. but todoroki was really attractive!! the gorge is nicely preserved and attracting reasonable amount of people (unlike yoyogi park) and its just 1 minute walking distance from todoroki station.  its atmosphere is so extraordinary for tokyo urbanites but somehow is blending to the area naturally.

if u feel tired of concrete jungle and huge tide of people in tokyo and feel the need of break from them immediately, todoroki should be the place.
