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.

Ginza Itoya Hontren

Ginza Itoya has been a Tokyo favorite for more than 100 years. Recently renovated, the store still stocks a beautiful range of stationery, including greeting cards, letter paper, and wrapping paper.

Reviewed By Chong_Agnes - Singapore, Singapore

Not for the usual tourist, this place is going to intrigue you and worse, if you are a stationery geek, empty your pockets in no time. We picked out so many unique items which are made in Japan and would make such perfect gifts rather than the run-of-the-mill souvenirs at airports and tourist traps. floor after floor of unique stationery.

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.
