Ozu Pokopen Yokochou

While Ozu is mainly known as the little Kyoto of Ehime, Ozu city, however, offers one of the best little Showa period repositories of products, toys and other wonders. Here you can find old Japanese candy shops, toy stores, traditional restaurants and izakayas. Pokopen Yokochou showcases the changing of times as you can see the transformation of Japan after World War II.

While Pokopen Yokochou alley may not always be open for business, the Pokopen Yokochou museum is open all week long and is, as far as we are concerned and after Garyu Sanso, one of Ozu’s best attractions!
