    If you enjoy browsing bookstores, I highly recommend adding this stop to your Ikebukuro itinerary! The Junkudo Bookstore Ikebukuro Main Store is huge, with everything from novels, manga, magazines, travel, and food books to all kinds of specialized publications. The floors are also clearly organized, so you can take your time browsing and choosing books. In addition to Japanese books, there are plenty of foreign-language books and stationery items. Even if you don't buy anything, it's interesting just to see what people in Japan usually read. The entire bookstore has a quiet, comfortable atmosphere, making it a nice place to step inside for some air conditioning while shopping, casually flip through books, and experience the distinctive culture of Japanese bookstores.
