What is Akihabara?

Question 1: What kind of place is Akihabara? My previous answer to this question was originally posted by wenwen.soso/z/q202807291 I have worked in a handicraft shop in Akihabara for 3 years. Let me briefly introduce the experience. Akihabara can be roughly divided into four parts. Bounded by Akihabara Station, the first is Chuo Avenue to the north. To the north of Central Avenue are various retail electronic products (especially computers), maid cafes or other role-playing coffee shops. A place where stores, game console centers and fan merchandise stores are concentrated. The south side of Central Avenue mainly sells orthodox animation peripheral products, mainly selling comics, models, animation DVDs, music CDs, games, etc. To the south of the station is the business district and YOTOBASIKAMERA. The business district is mainly for software development companies, and there will be a free flea market on Saturdays and Sundays. YOTOBASIKAMERA is the largest electronics department store in Tokyo. Almost all electronic products and new games, DVDs, CDs, etc. can be found there. Further south of YOTOBASIKAMERA is Meiji Avenue. Along this avenue are mainly various Internet cafes, DVD viewing stores, bars and restaurants. Originally, Akihabara was a neighborhood that mainly focused on electronic products. After the 1990s, animation shops began to move in. By around 2000, both sides occupied half of the area. After 2005, animation peripherals entered their heyday, and software companies also began to move in. It became The current status of animation is 40%, software and electronic products are 30% each, and the business form has also changed from traditional retail to retail + tourism. If you want to say when is the best time to go, my personal suggestion is summer, because Japan has the habit of taking family leave in summer (around Menglan Festival), the company will also give summer bonuses, and animation and other summer broadcasts are usually the best time of the year. There are many important things around. Therefore, Akihabara’s products have the greatest variety in the summer. In mid-August this year, the pedestrian street will reopen after a two-year hiatus. But the biggest problem is probably that the weather will be hotter (basically above 35 degrees every day). Also, the obscene store someone mentioned... that one existed a long time ago. There are about 4 or 5 stores (one is a chain store with 3 stores). They mainly sell adult videos, software and toys. If they sell Be careful not to pass Chinese customs...

The origin of Akihabara Electric Street

In the Edo period, the area around Akihabara Electric Street was once home to lower-level samurai place of residence. After the Meiji era, Japan began to enter the era of electrification. Not only did electric lights begin to be used, but NHK radio broadcasting officially began in 1926. Radio quickly became popular as a means of keeping informed and entertained. Wholesalers selling wires, distributors, switches, and radio components also grew up. However, after the outbreak of the Pacific War, it became difficult to obtain electrical materials other than for military purposes, and even light bulbs were rationed, so such commercial transactions fell into trouble. After the Tokyo Air Raid in 1945, Tokyo was almost completely destroyed, and the Akihabara area was almost completely turned into scorched earth.

Electrical Appliance Town

Centered on Chuo Avenue and Kanda Myojin Avenue on the west side of JR Akihabara Station, there are about 250 electronics stores of various sizes.

After the Pacific War, black market electronics stores in the Surugadai/Ogawa-cho area gradually began to specialize in selling radio components. According to the 1951 Street Vendor Reorganization Ordinance, these shops were concentrated under the viaduct of Akihabara Station. It is said that this is the origin of Akihabara Electric Street. As a result, such stores finally began to officially sell home appliances.

Home appliances were once a symbol of affluence during Japan's period of rapid economic growth. Black and white TVs, washing machines, and refrigerators are known as the three greatest artifacts. Under the influence of propaganda such as "Electric appliances in Akihabara are cheap", Akihabara gradually became prosperous. Stores selling computers appeared in the 1970s. At this time, Akihabara has become a center for selling electronic devices. Since then, sales of home appliances such as video recorders, dictaphones, and stereos have continued to rise. But at the same time, with the expansion of home appliance stores and the emergence of discount sales, Akihabara's advantage in home appliance retail has also weakened.

In 1994, the sales of computer-related products in Akihabara Electric Town exceeded the sales of home appliances. Akihabara has gradually transformed into a cutting-edge multimedia street focusing on computers, mobile phones, and Internet-related products.

In September this year, the YODOBASHI CAMERA "Multimedia AKIBA" store located at the east exit of JR Akihabara Station will open for business. With a store area of ​​27,000 square meters, it is Japan's largest home appliance mass merchandiser.

Question 10: Is there any place in China like Akihabara in Japan? I know you yearn for it very much, but it is not as beautiful as you imagined. There are only more stores.
