Details
This event, organized by the "Kofu Yokochō Rakukai" (Kofu Yokochō Enjoyment Association), invites visitors to discover the unique atmosphere of Kofu, Yamanashi Prefecture. The area features alleyways known as "yokochō," which have been preserved since the Showa 39 era (1964). The event offers a special menu allowing participants to visit multiple recommended stores using a single common ticket. This initiative aims to share the concentrated collection of delicious food and drinks found in these historic alleyways with a wider audience, rather than just regulars.
