Nishi-Nippori (Nippori West) is the station on the northeast part of Yamanote Line . This station is relatively new : it opened about 50 years ago. Since then, the area around here is called “Nishi- Nippori”.
For tourists from outside Japan, this is a nondescript area. But for people in Tokyo, especially for teenagers, this area has special meaning : Kaisei high school is located here, just two or three minutes’ walk from Nishi-Nippori Station. Kaisei high school is positioned at least among three top-level high schools in Tokyo, with best and brightest students not only in Tokyo but also from all over Japan. How do you feel to see the school building on the right side of the road?
