Shopping
Tokyo Character Street
About 30 character shops in one basement corridor inside Tokyo Station. Ideal for a layover or your last hour in Japan.
This underground street packs official shops for Pokémon, Studio Ghibli via Donguri Kyowakoku, Shonen Jump, Rilakkuma, Hello Kitty, Chiikawa, Miffy and the major TV networks into a single corridor, all inside Tokyo Station.
Why it is worth it
If your schedule collapses, this single corridor covers most major IPs in 45 minutes without leaving the station.
Only here
Tokyo Station limited designs across almost every shop.
When to go
Busy 17:00–19:00 with commuters. Mornings are easy.
Good to know
It sits outside the ticket gates, so you do not need a train ticket to walk in with your luggage.
