Toyo Department Store Annex
Toyo Department Store Annex is located in Setagaya-ku, Tokyo. It sits inside the MIKAN SHIMOKITA commercial complex beneath the elevated tracks at Shimokitazawa Station on the Keio Inokashira Line. From its base in Shimokitazawa, a neighborhood known for its subculture scene, it showcases the area's unique appeal.
So many of the products are familiar Japanese brands.
It kind of feels like being back in an old-school Japanese department store. -
Jidaiya Asakusa
Asakusa Jidaiya is known for revivaling rickshaw riding in Asakusa. Apart from rickshaws, visitors can experience traditional Japanese cultural activities such as Kimono rentals and Japanese cultural experiences.
The staff are super friendly and attentive! Even if you don't speak Japanese, no worries—their English is pretty good and they're really helpful.

Aomori Nebuta Festival
The Aomori Nebuta Festival is held in Aomori City between August 2 and 7 every year and attracts as many as 1 million visitors every year. It is one of the three major festivals in the Tohoku region and is designated as an Important Intangible Folk Cultural Asset property by the Japanese government.
If you're into photography, the lights, colors, and movement at night are perfect for taking photos. But it does get pretty crowded, so make sure to grab a spot early.
