Independent brands, secondhand clothes, and sewing clothes are all here! Visit this new spot in Shimotakaido.

While it is great to enjoy shopping at a store you are familiar with, it must be fun to go to a store you are new to and shop with a bit of nervousness. It is even more enjoyable if it is the first time to get off at a station. In August, a new store opened in a town just a short distance from the city center. Why don't you take a walk and enjoy shopping at this new spot?

Shimotakaido Station was featured in last week's "Dekago! Admachic Tengoku" last week. It is about a 10-minute ride on the Keio Line from Shinjuku, and there is a market in front of the station that was created after the post-war barracks period, which will close next March, as well as a shopping district with traditional stores and a quiet residential area a short walk away.
