Tokyo Shopping Guide

donut

I have visited Japan four times now and each time I’ve researched an exhaustive itinerary of cute, crafty and creative places to visit. Below you’ll find individual posts on my favourite shops and sights, plus guides to the main areas of Tokyo. After my most recent trips, I’m adding a few places outside Japan including Osaka, Kyoto, Hiroshima and Nagoya.

For posts about my own trips and favourite places to visit around Japan, plus loads of links to blogs, guides, trip reports, resources, maps and more, check out the new My Japan Trips page.
