When you stay or live in Japan for a long time you may miss written materials in English. Yajimaya Book Store in May-One station building is one of the few places to buy the books in English in Hamamatsu. Yajimaya has the largest numbers of English books or magazines in Shizuoka prefecture. But I have to warn you the price could be a lot higher than what you can get in the U.K. or U.S.

Dont forget if you arrive to Hamamatsu.
"Zaza city" is shopping mall that near the Hamamatsu station.
There are a cafe area and ice cream shop and can watch Cinema here.
But most Hamamatsu people go to "***oro Shopping Mall" apart from Hamamatsu Sta.
They use car and go to there.Because a little of parking area are in Hamamatsu central area.

"Papas"
"Toho Cinemas"
What to pay: Depands on people.
