💡 Tips for Visitors
Most shops are cash-only, so bring yen with you. Visit on weekdays for a quieter experience, as weekends can get crowded with domestic tourists. Try the famous kusa-dango (mugwort dumplings) and toraya's traditional sweets. Limited English is spoken, but shopkeepers are friendly and welcoming to foreign visitors.
