    At Kitaro Chaya near Jindaiji Temple, the cute and familiar yokai displays outside immediately made me take out my phone to snap some photos. The whole place is filled with touches from GeGeGe no Kitaro. Once inside, you can see elements of the characters everywhere, from the decor and food to the merchandise. It feels like stepping into Kitaro’s world. Besides trying the themed desserts, I also browsed the merchandise, and everything was fun and great for photos. After experiencing it in person, I found it very playful and charming. It’s not just anime fans who will enjoy it—even regular travelers can have a lot of fun. It’s well worth stopping by when visiting the Jindaiji area.
