2 Best Places to Shop in Nagoya, Ise-Shima, and the Kii Peninsula, Japan

Komehyo run a bunch of high-end thrift stores, including this store in Osu specializing in used (but high-quality) kimono and yukata.

With 1,200 stores, selling everything from fashion and crafts to daily goods, this network of covered arcades is perfect for a day of shopping, especially on a rainy day. Highlights include the traditional knives sold at Miura and the used kimono of Komehyo, but you will also find a small antiques market here, on the grounds of Osu Kannon temple on the 18th and 28th of each month. To get here, take the Tsurumai Line to Osu Kannon Station (one stop south of Fushimi).
