Oriental Bazaar

Tourist friendly (except that it incongruously closes on Thursdays), this three-story emporium offers an ideal one-stop souvenir shop. Dolls, teapots, kimonos, yukata, woodblock prints from the ukiyo-e masters, antiques and books on Japan can be purchased here and even shipped home by the English-speaking sales staff. The basement may be the most interesting, with vintage kimonos, chic tees emblazoned with graphically attractive Japanese kanji alphabet characters and folksy local toys.
