Quickly pack a suitcase with the most important necessities - don't forget your iPod, Nike shoes, printed t-shirts and, of course, prescription glasses - and check out the world's most hipster neighborhoods before they are swept away by the destructive wave of tourism.
These are the most hipster neighborhoods in the world:
1. Kreuzberg – Berlin (Germany)
Kreuzberg, or as Berliners call it, X-Berg, is one of the better hipster neighborhoods in Germany. In addition to street music, handsome bearded Germans and fair-haired local women, it is also distinguished by street art. Where the Berlin Wall used to be an obstacle and a problem, nowadays it has turned into an opportunity and space for many street artists. Not far away, for the finishing touch, there is an abandoned airport, which is perfect for reading your favorite book and hunting for great photos.

2. Shimokitazawa – Tokyo (Japan)
The Japanese usually replace the term "hipster" with "weird" or at least "unusual". But in Shimokitazawa, one of the areas of Tokyo, hipsters understand themselves better than you do. In addition to excellent restaurants, where it is definitely worth trying soy ice cream and grilled meatballs, a visitor can admire a stuffed lizard hanging from his head while drinking at the Mother's Ruins bar.
3. Fitzroy - Melbourne (Australia)
Australia is definitely one of the main hipster havens, and Fitzroy reigns supreme over all Australian hipster neighborhoods. Kitsch houses decorated with enlarged Scrabble letters, iconic cafes and shops selling quality and imaginative iPhone cases are enough to visit Australia in themselves.
4. Pearl District - USA
In Portland, USA, there is the Pearl District, which the most hipster neighborhoods in the world, if they could vote, would probably choose as their leader. Long streets of bookstores, antique shops and microbreweries wind through it. The perfect place to immerse yourself in the world of Jack Kerouac.
5. Barranco – Lima (Peru)
Although the Peruvian neighborhood of Barranco is fairly new, word of mouth about it goes far. And not without reason. Barranco offers an endless supply of washed and ripped jeans and thrift stores. Due to its location by the sea, the town is often shrouded in a mysterious fog - as if nature helped create a truly hipster atmosphere!
