Monuments of specters are placed at every turn along the shopping street. Especially famous are "Kitaro putting Medama Oyaji in his hand," "Lying Nezumi Otoko," "Neko Musume riding on Ittan-momen," and "Nurikabe sitting on a stump."

Harmonica Alley

Harmonica Alley is a cluster of about a hundred stores and restaurants, some old and some new, arranged neatly together in the narrow lanes in front of the north exit of Kichijoji Station.
