    Billed as the oldest department store in Japan, Mitsukoshi opened in 1673 as a kimono shop and became a department store in 1904. Carries many European brands.

    Can buy what you want, it all depends on how much you wish to spend in and second?

    What I did was just had a good window shopping session.

    Lot of money

    Department Stores: Kitasenju

  • I've been living 10 minutes away from what some consider the major entry point into Tokyo from Chiba and Saitama, Kitasenju. It's a wonderful little town with the recent addition of the Marui department store adjacent to the Lumine department store and Kitasenju train station. Lumine, I believe, has been an addition from the past few years so it's quite new and clean, with little clothes boutiques, a nice market downstairs, a Sony plaza, DVD/record shop, and a great eating area upstairs. Also, it's conveniently attached to the train station so you don't have to go outside to enter. Next to that you have Marui which has been opened since Feb of 2004. It's a slightly more upscale department store which favors teens as demonstrated by the hip clothing (including a Gap). The place boast a Virgin record store, Tokyu Hands, Kinokuniya book store, an international market, a cheap and expensive food course down and upstairs respectfully and various other goods.

    try the restaurants from either department store. my recommendations are Tapas Tapas, Kokan Soba shop and another Chinese shop in Lumine. Also, check out the import stores. Both have one (at least).

  • A great department stores for both women and men. They have a separate tower for men only! They have both European as well as local designer labels and it's tax refundable for tourists.

    I didn't do many shopping cos' it's too expensive but the handbag selection is great!

    Handbags, shoes, accessories, clothes for men and women

    Quite expensive

    Department Stores: Discover Tobu

  • Despite having been to many major department stores around the World, I can surely say this is the biggest one! Incredible array of fashion, stuff for home (bath, kitchen, living room), sports goods, fantastic baby&kid floor with all major designers.

    I spent virtually two days roaming through this department store and still didn't manage to see it all. On top floor (10 & 11) there is something resembling an upscale flea market of locally produced goods - for any fan of Japan-made stuff, this is the place to check out.

    Fashion is the main subject, but apart from that you can really get anything you want. I spent a lot of money on some of the best baby clothing I found in Tokyo.

    Higher than average prices, but so are the goods too.

  • This is a multi-floored department store showcasing many funky and gadget-y Japanese goods. The goods are pretty expensive here, but browsing is free and the oooh value was good. I usually get cheaper versions of the goods sold here at a 100Yen shop.

    This store shares the building with the Takashimaya Department Store.

    Shibuya 109 is a shopping complex out of this world. There are 8 full floors of womens clothing and accessories. In Japan fashion is totally outrageuos. Anything goes. You can wear anything you like and you will look as normal as everyone else as anything really goes.

    You will see lots of teenagers to - 30s (and im guessing here their age) with really dyed or bleach blonde hair or very light brown hair with fake tan brown tans wearing lots of makeup.

    You feel like your seeing all these people like on the TDK ads. Its totally out of this world.
