Ginza

This large neighborhood is home to many stores and restaurants and is a favorite destination for the youth of Tokyo.

Reviewed By YairBarZohar - Qiryat Ata, Israel

This district, considered one of the most exclusive shopping areas in the world, has the largest concentration of Western brands in Japan, including Gucci, Chanel, Louis Vuitton and many others. You will also find huge stores of leading electronics companies, including Apple and Sony. Every Sunday and Saturday, from 12:00 to 17:00, the main street that passes through the Ginza district becomes a "pedestrian paradise" and is closed to vehicular traffic, so it's the best time to get there.

Kabukiza Theater

Traditional Japanese Kabuki performances can be seen at this refurbished theater in the Ginza district.

Reviewed By Escape618129

The tickets are available over the counter half an hour before the play which spares all the hassle with prebooking. The theatre itself is impressive and the play worth seeing even for non Japanese speakers. The costumes from Edo period look like a fairytale, it was also suprising to hear the music and voices during the play. You can use Enhlish transcripts.

Ginza Mitsukoshi

This is the oldest surviving department store chain in Japan. Its floors offer menswear, womenswear, accessories, children's wear, toys, and household goods. It's also popular for its large food hall.

Reviewed By CathFromTexas

If you are a shopper, this is the place to be! A 12 story department store with upscale designer brands. Even if you are a not a shopper, the bottom three floors are the “food court” floors. They are out of this world! The most beautiful food and everything you could possible imagine. The food floors are a must see! If you are looking for Japanese souvenirs, this is not the right place. This is upscale shopping. The 7th floor is fun and has good gift items and home decor. I like to shop so I enjoyed this department store. It is so elegant and the displays are just gorgeous.

This is the first-ever department store in Ginza. It contains mostly premium fashion, beauty, and homeware brands. There's also an impressive two-level food hall in the basement.

Tokyu Plaza Ginza

The building’s exterior is based on a motif of Japanese traditional art of Edo kiriko cut glass. In the “FIND JAPAN MARKET” located on the 6th/ 7th floor, you can explore world-renowned genuine Japanese goods.

Reviewed By Reasonable50

Great new building in a prime location in Ginza. The Ginza station is in the basement making it is easy to get to. A good variety of restaurants are on the upper levels. Duty free is in the middle. Shopping is on the lowers floors. There is an amazing atrium on the 6th floor. And the best part is the roof garden on top with 360 degree views.

Reviewed By O32018 - Philadelphia, United States

This shopping mall has upscale stores and restaurants, but also one of the best bookstores. One may spend hours in the bookstore. It has books, but also novelty items. It is possible to spend an entire day with a family even if they have different interests.
