The 10 Best Shopping Malls in Ueno, Asakusa, Kanto
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.

Had a great time shopping here on a drizzly grey day in June 2019. My partner is crazy about gaming so was amusing himself shopping in Akiba, but after a day of following him around I needed a break. Luckily for me, I found Aki-Oka. It's a fantastic spot on a rainy day as it's all under cover, there are some benches and free wifi, and you can get coffee and a light bite from the cafe. It's also super easy to get to - just walk alongside the Yamanote line from Akiba station. And lastly, the best bit is the shopping. I bought a beautiful ceramic brooch from a pottery studio, a wooden-faced stainless steel watch from the woodware store, and could happily have spent much, much more. Nothing is cheap because it's all beautifully hand-crafted, but for what it is, it's well-priced. And it's always nice to have pleasant memories to go with a treasured item.

Right on the top of Tobu-Nikko train station terminal and opposite to Nakamise shopping street. Basement is mainly for the beautiful Japanese souvenirs, which is our favorite floor. A very interesting Yen 300 shop on the 4th floor is our next favorites. Also tax refund counter at the end of the basement hallway. Extremely convenient.

I tried the public bath here and it was a bit pricey. it's a kind of luxury public bath and spa. It is located just 5 mins walk from Asakusa Station. If you have more time or just feel tired from shopping, you may visit this place to take a rest and relax for a few hours.
