💡 Tips for Visitors

Most shops are cash-only, so be sure to have yen on hand before visiting. The street is liveliest during morning hours when locals do their shopping, and many smaller shops may close in the early evening. English signage is limited, but shopkeepers are generally friendly and patient with foreign visitors.
