Kitaro Chaya
GeGeGe no Kitaro, a fan favorite for generations, now makes it way to this shop along Tenjin-dori Shopping Street in Chofu City, the town and proclaimed second home where creator Shigeru Mizuki spent years at work.
Right next to the teahouse is Jindaiji Temple, which gives the whole area a great vibe. The atmosphere feels a bit nostalgic, and there's a cute but quirky charm to it.
Marronnier Gate Ginza
A large-scale shopping facility divided into 3 buildings, “Marronnier Gate 1”, “Marronnier Gate 2” and “Marronnier Gate 3”. The name of the shopping center expresses its location as the entrance of Ginza’s Marronnier Street.
There are three buildings in total. The world’s largest unique flagship store is here, along with Angelina’s dessert shop and Tokyu Hands. There’s so much to see and shop for—love it!
Atre Shinagawa
This commercial establishment located inside the station has a chic and stylish atmosphere reminiscent of New York. There are shops and restaurants located on the 2nd to 4th floors of the building.
On the second floor, you’ll find stationery, miscellaneous goods, and clothing. The third floor has Blue Bottle Coffee and a super high-end Isetan supermarket. It was my first time feeling so comfortable shopping at a supermarket! All the beautifully packaged foods made me want to take everything home.
Gate City Ohsaki
This is a large complex linked directly to the southern ticket gate of JR Osaki Station. It features a zone of restaurants and shops spread between the basement level and the third floor, enveloped by the East Tower and the West Tower. The structure from the basement to the third floor is designed with an atrium, and events such as concerts frequently take place in the square.
Most of the people here during lunchtime are office workers from nearby. It's a popular spot for lunch breaks.
