Nakameguro (中目黒) is a residential district ofMeguro,Tokyo. It is popular for its uniqueboutique cafes and stores, and the area near theMeguro River is a popularhanami (cherry blossom viewing) destination in mid-spring.[1] It lends its name toNakameguro Station.
The district is situated along Yamate Dōri (山手通り) and on the southern region of Komazawa Dōri (駒沢通り). SinceNakameguro Station is located not in this district but in northernKamimeguro, the place name Nakameguro is often used for the larger region encompassing Nakameguro and Kamimeguro as well as a small portion ofAobadai andHigashiyama.
Yūtenji, built in 1718, is a temple of thePure Land Buddhism located on the easternmost part of Nakameguro; Yūtenji is also the name of a district adjacent to Nakameguro in Meguro which is not where the temple is located.
Meguro City Board of Education operates public elementary and junior high schools.
Nakameguro 1-3chōme and parts of 4-5 chōme are zoned to Nakameguro Elementary School (中目黒小学校). Parts of 5-chōme are zoned to Aburamen Elementary School (油面小学校), while other parts are zoned to Kamimeguro Elementary School (上目黒小学校). Parts of 4-chōme are zoned to Dendo Elementary School (田道小学校). The majority of Nakameguro is zoned to Meguro Central Junior High School (目黒中央中学校). However the portion zoned to Dendo Elementary instead feeds into Otori Junior High School (大鳥中学校).[2]
