(Redirected from Kabuki-cho)
Kabukicho (歌舞伎町) is a district in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan . A red-light district and location of many hostess bars, the neighborhood is a major shopping, restaurant, and nightclub area as well. The district's name comes from late-1940s plans to build a kabuki theater: although the theater was never built, the name stuck. The area has many movie theaters, and located near Shinjuku, Seibu Shinjuku, and several other major railway and subway stations, tickets to its top attractions can be scarce.
The offices of the city government of Shinjuku are in Kabukicho.
