Located in the Shijo Kawaramachi area—the center of Kyoto sightseeing—this large electronics store offers direct access from Kyoto-Kawaramachi Station on the Hankyu Kyoto Line via an underground route, allowing visitors to enter the store without getting wet even on rainy days.

Open every day until 9 PM, and never closed throughout the year, the store is perfect not only for evening shopping after a day of sightseeing but also for a quick visit between activities. With tax-free services and multilingual staff available at certain times, the store has become increasingly popular among international travelers in recent years.

EDION operates about 1,200 stores across Japan, and its greatest strength lies in its exceptional customer service focused on hospitality. In addition to competitive prices, many electronics—including beauty appliances—are powered on and available for hands-on testing. Popular items like beauty appliances can be tried out before purchasing—allowing you to make an informed choice and select the one that feels just right.

Each floor offers something unique: the 6th floor features TreCapital, a specialty trading card store; the basement level boasts one of Kyoto’s largest selections of capsule toy machines; and the first-floor “WATCH SQUARE” showcases an impressive range of domestic and international watch brands.
