San Francisco’s Japantown might be a small, but it’s not to be overlooked. For those seeking out the best of Japanese culture, food, and art, this six-block neighborhood, framed by the Pacific Heights and Fillmore neighborhoods, is the place to be. Neighborhood highlights include the 5-tier Peace Pagoda (a gift from SF’s sister city, Osaka, Japan), the Japan Center shopping mall (comprised of the Kinokuniya Mall, Kintetsu Mall, and Miyako Mall), well-known Japanese book retailer Kinokuniya, and several great Japanese restaurants including OzaOza and Marufuku Ramen.
