By Mr Yasuo Watanabe - Guest Services Transportation Officer

Immerse yourself in authentic local culture at Yanaka Ginza, a small street market frequented by residents for everything from groceries to toys, clothing and everyday necessities. A short walk from Nippori station, row upon row of rustic, mom-and-pop shops lend an air of nostalgia and old town ambience to this charming destination.

- Shops range from groceries and necessities to clothes and toys for local residences
- The closest station is Nippori JR Station or Sendagi Subway Station
- "Yanaka" is named because the location is in a valley between Uenodai and Hongodai.
