The Otoko-machi Map (男街マップ, "boy's town map") is a country-wide guide to Japanese gay establishments.
Published yearly, the guide, which is organized by prefecture and city, contains listings for bars, clubs, and host-bars, gay saunas, gay restaurants and bookstores, and other gay or gay-friendly establishments.
Listings for bars typically include a photograph of the owner or bartenders, as well as information on the type of customers preferred.
Most listings are accompanied by maps giving directions from the nearest train station.
