TOKYO-GA, an international project to capture “TOKYO NOW”
through the visionary eyes of 100 photographers, launched in Tokyo in 2011.

What is happiness? “Where would we want to live?” Through the eyes of two photographers, we saw the necessary elements of a city… We have found there are places that even travelers may feel a sense of familiarity, as if those places were created just for them. The daily comfort of both Shimokitazawa and Kichijoji, interactions with people, close to beautiful nature. We wish Tokyo to share such an ordinary happiness with visitors.
