The e-book edition includes 11 bonus pages not found in the print version. This is the debut work by "Retro Sanpo" Tsutsumi Juri, a social media influencer with over 100,000 followers dedicated to introducing retro architecture. Explore 21 must-see historic buildings in and around Tokyo, guided by the author's personal "heart-flutter" moments at each location. ◇Message from the Author◇ I visit over 300 retro buildings each year. Since childhood, I've been exploring retro architecture with my father, so I've lost count of exactly how many. Before I knew it, I was completely captivated by retro buildings. Why am I so drawn to them? It's because of the "beauty" that lives within retro things. Ceiling decorations, wall motifs, soft light filtering through colored glass—elements that exist not for function or efficiency, but simply because they are "beautiful." Every time I encounter such "negative space" and "playfulness," my heart skips a beat. And the buildings that remain today carry the warmth of time, cherished and preserved by those who came before. In this book, I share my "heart-flutter" moments through three types of experiences: "eating, exploring, and staying." It's a way to enjoy retro travel by "living" rather than simply observing. You don't need to be an expert in history or architecture—this book is a small stepping stone to discovering your own "favorites." Come, let's venture out together to find the magic hidden within retro architecture.
