The 10 Best Gift & Specialty Shops in Shinjuku, Kanto

May 29, 2021 Veronika Gaddis

Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

I travelled to Japan with my father to watch rwc 2019 and decided to book a photo shoot with SAMURAI Sengoku Photo Studio as a memory of our trip together. Taro san was a great host and photographer with wonderful staff and shared some amazing Japanese history about the armour and samurai practises. Truely an unforgettable experience! I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to dive into Japanese history and culture and have fun while doing it! Thank you again!

Okadaya Shinjuku Honten

Reviewed By MinervaZee - Laurel, United States

This is one of the best places for craft supplies in Tokyo. One building has sewing notions, yarn, and assorted supplies, the other has fabric. The fabric choices are good, but if you want a really extensive selection you need to go to Nippori fabric town. What I like is the convenience of everything under one roof, and the location. As a knitter, I was specifically looking for yarn, and they have a great selection - both imported and made in Japan. Make sure to check out the top floor - that's their warehouse sale, and I got an amazing deal on a bag of my favorite yarn (more than half off, and way less than I'd pay for the same yarn in the US). I wish I'd had more time to look through the embroidery supplies, they had a good selection of sashiko patterns and embroidery floss.
