Explore the Local "Non-touristy" Side of Tokyo: Jujo and Akabane Walking Tour

Spend 3 hours exploring the historical shopping area of Jujo, including the Zujo Fujimi Ginza shopping district and the Jujo Nakadori street.

After gathering at JR Jujo Station, you will stroll around Jujo Ginza shopping street. In addition to Togoshi Ginza and Sunamachi Ginza, the Jujo Ginza shopping district is known as one of Tokyo’s best three old shopping streets, and has 500 shops with prepared foods, fresh foods, clothing items and so on, and you will not only be surprised by the scale of the area, but also the cheapness. Special price tags are seen everywhere, and good deals are arranged. Each store cooperates to actively promote district-wide events leading to a real community feel. They have thousands of surprisingly cheap items such as croquettes (1 piece for 30 yen), yakitori (1 piece for 50 yen), socks for 50 yen and so on. There are many locally-based shops, and it is also characteristic that the distance between shopkeepers and shoppers is short.
