It looks like there's so much going on all at once, I imagine it's a bit overwhelming at first. I enjoy checking out markets and shopping centers when I travel, they tend to be good places to see how locals live and the perfect location to find good restaurants that aren't touristy.

We are planning on visiting Japan this year and I had been reading about the destinations in Japan - had not heard about Ameyoko till now. We will be definitely be visiting Tokyo and I really appreciate the tips on shopping on this street. It's good to read that the crime has lessened in this area. I would love to visit this flea market for the great deals and also to get to experience the Japanese culture.Aditi Sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06138361062085292104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8708011511965200774.post-23973477045738186522019-07-19T00:45:32.166+08:002019-07-19T00:45:32.166+08:00Great!

Me, I'll be there for two things....street food and model kits if they have some. Hehehe! So it's like Divisoria or Baclaran. Been there too. It's fun but a little bit unsafe due to snatchers. Is it like that in Ameyoko?Gian and Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04334707062504033363noreply@blogger.com
