💡 Tips for Visitors

Many smaller shops are cash-only, so bring yen with you. Visit in the late afternoon or early evening when the arcade is most lively and food vendors are in full swing. Limited English is spoken, but shopkeepers are generally friendly and patient—pointing and using a translation app works well for communication.
