TOKYO SHOPPING GUIDE
Shinjuku - One of Tokyo's largest shopping and entertainment districts
Centered around Shinjuku Station, a major transportation hub and the busiest train
station in the world, this district is home to half a dozen major department stores,
including several companies' flagship stores; as well as outlets of Japan's largest
electronics retailers combined with a host of other shops and boutiques along its
streets and underground shopping arcades.
Shibuya - Center of youth fashion
Around Shibuya Station is another large shopping district that is the birthplace of
many of Japan's youth fashion trends. It is home to some well known, trend setting
clothing stores such as Shibuya 109, as well as dozens of small fashion stores along
its streets. Small boutiques, including high fashion and designer brands, continue to
be found through to Aoyama and Daikanyama where the atmosphere is more
subdued compared to the electric brightness of Shibuya.
Harajuku - High fashion vs youth trends and counter culture
Harajuku has a split personality with two parallel shopping streets that cater to very
different shoppers. Omotesando, known as Tokyo's Champs-Elysees, is a tree lined

avenue with upscale boutiques, cafes and several leading designer brand shops.
Takeshita Dori, on the other hand, is a center of youth fashion and counter culture
found along a narrow street crammed with shops and cafes targeting the younger,
teenage crowd.
Ginza - Tokyo's premier upmarket shopping district
The Ginza features high end department stores, boutiques, art galleries and
designer brand stores. Nearly every leading Japanese and international brand name
fashion and cosmetics company has a presence here, as well as major electronics
brands such as Sony and Apple. The shopping extends into the nearby Yurakucho
area with more department stores, boutiques and electronic retailers.
Akihabara - Electronics mecca and center of Otaku culture
Akihabara is home to many electronics retailers such as Yodobashi Camera,
Yamada Denki, Laox and Sofmap as well as hundreds of small discount electronics
shops that are jammed along the district's streets and back alleys. Akihabara is also
the center of Japan's burgeoning otaku culture with dozens of shops devoted
to anime, manga, collectibles and games.
