Tenmonkan Shopping Arcade Night Scene

4.3Est. 150¥¥Kagoshima, Kyushu

Local Pick

Overview

The neon-lit backstreets of Kagoshima's entertainment district where izakayas serve shochu by the carafe.

Tenmonkan is Kagoshima's main entertainment quarter, but the magic is in the narrow side streets packed with tiny izakayas specializing in kurobuta pork, satsuma-age fishcakes, and the prefecture's legendary shochu. Kagoshima produces more shochu than anywhere in Japan, and the local bars offer flights of dozens of varieties.

Local tips

Ask for 'imo-jochu' (sweet potato shochu) served 'oyuwari' (hot water mix). It's the local way to drink, and pairs perfectly with kurobuta.
