Or, you could walk 13 minutes from the next station, Kojiya. You can get to Haneda Airport Terminal 1 from Otorii station in just 8 minutes! This is great if you have to take a lot of trips.

We'll explore Haginaka Park and the shopping street near Kojiya station.
Haginaka Park
On the way from Otorii station to the house is Haginaka park. It boasts a lot of trees, like cherry, plum, and keyaki. You can workout or play sports here, and it's a popular spot for families. Ther's also a space with small rides, on trains, boats, and more. We recommend checking that out. We imagined how it would have been even way more fun if we were kids! Still, it's a great place to relax, or walk along the course.

Walking around Kojiya station
Kojiya station, south exit
A 12 or 13 minute walk from the house is Kojiya station, the station next to Otorii. The house is right between these two stations, which is good for convenience. We visited the area getting off at Orotii, and passed through the shopping street and left via Kojiya. Kojiya station has a nearby supermarket open until 1 AM. There is also the Kojiya shopping street.
Lively shopping street at Kojiya station
Kojiya shopping street
This nostalgic shopping street is made up of 100 stores, selling a range of goods much like the Haginaka street. We checked out the Otaya meat shop, with delicious fried goodies. There are also plenty of other places to eat and drink.
A convenient town with convenient shopping
Use 2 stations conveniently
So what did you think? We got to explore 2 areas this time, Otorii and Kojiya, both with bustling and convenient shopping streets. In addition to Haginaka park, there's the Tama river area, Hon-Haneda park, and lots more. You could get to the Haneda airport of course, but also Shinagawa, Shinbashi, Tokyo, and other areas.
This is a really great area near Haneda so we hope you will come see for yourself!
