KARUIZAWA PRINCE SHOPPING PLAZA
It is one of Japan’s largest resort-style shopping malls, located just outside the south exit of JR Karuizawa Station. There are 10 areas on the premises in a rich natural setting, having about 240 stores offering a wide range of products, including famous brands, interior goods, general goods, and outdoor products. It is an attractive place where you can get high-quality items from top brands at outlet prices.
It feels like a lot of the shoppers here are people who own villas in the area and come to Karuizawa for vacation.

Shinano Railway's Karuizawa Station
The Karuizawa station building, demolished with the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen in 1997, was revived in October 2017 as the Shinano Railway Karuizawa Station and the Old Station Building entrance. It utilizes the historically significant building that had been preserved as the Old Karuizawa Station Building Memorial Hall, maintaining the serene ambiance characteristic of Karuizawa.
Taking the train to Karuizawa for a trip is actually pretty convenient.

Stretching approximately 1.3km east to west from Tokyu Ikegami Line's Togoshi Ginza Station, this shopping district boasts around 400 establishments ranging from fresh produce stores to cafes, bakeries, and bathhouses.
The street is really long and packed with shops. The atmosphere is fantastic.
