 Omotesando　表参道

Just a few minutes walk from Harajuku, is Omotesando. In Omotesando you can find a mix of up market fashion brands, chic cafes, restaurants and American brands like GAP. The building `Omotesando Hills’ was recently built and is a fine example of the how much Japanese people like shopping with the quality of the shops, selection of products and the beauty of the building itself.

Ginza　銀座 

If you are looking for high fashion items and brand names then Ginza is the place for you! Ginza is where you will find top fashion brands like Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Prada and more. There are many department stores, tea houses and specialty stores. You can spend some serious money here. It is also a great place to visit on Sunday as the main street is blocked off so you can walk the streets with no cars, a really nice way to spend the day while people watching all the rich and famous. Ginza is also home to the SonyBuilding and Tasaki Pearl Gallery.

Shibuya is well known for the night lights, clubs, busiest intersection in Tokyo and FASHION! There are several; types of places to shop here from department stores such as Parco and Mitsukoshi to side stalls, independent and market like shops ranging from cheap to very expensive depending on your taste and budget. One area that you need to be seen is the building called `109’. It is 10 floors of women’s fashion!! Yes 10 floors. It is the most popular shopping centre for young Japanese ladies. Even if it is not your style, just seeing this range and shopping style is quite a Japanese experience in itself.

This is my favourite as there are so many little old shops where you can get some great gifts and Japanese products. Just head for SensojiTemple and the paymed area on the way is called Nakamise Shopping area – lots of fun and there are some great foods to try. It is also famous for rice crackers `senbai’, make sure you try some!! Thjere are some great tea houses tucked away in the side streets too and well as blowfish `fugu’ and whale meat restaurants

Best areas to shop:
1.Takeshita Dori, Harajuku　原宿

Harajuku is a great place to wonder as there are a lot of shops to visit and the more side streets you take, the more you’ll discover. The most popular place to shop is Takeshita-dori. It is one long street lined with shops from accessories, clothing, shoes to food, cafes and perfume shops. I do think if you want to get some cute products, get a chance to see `Harajuku girls’ dressed up and yummy crepes, this is the place for you!
