About Little Tokyo

Little Tokyo is bordered by downtown Los Angeles, City Hall, the Los Angeles River, and the Arts District. As a cultural hub for Japanese Americans, it’s the most populous Japantown in the US, with the only two others located in San Francisco and San Jose. In 1995, LA’s Little Tokyo was declared a National Historic Landmark District.

Fun fact: The California roll—a sushi staple in the US made with cucumber, avocado, and (imitation) crab—was created in LA's Little Tokyo.
