Chinese
New Year started today and many tourists arrived in Japan.
I
visited Ginza, one of Tokyo’s busiest commercial areas and a popular place for Chinese visitors, and indeed, found many tourist there.
A
parade of buses stopped at the corner of Ginza and tourists got off. They
walked straight to shops like Laox (electronics good owned by a Chinese company) and
Uniqlo fashion store.
Some
of them dropped in Ginza Karen bag shop and bought big suitcases (to carry what
they bought).
The
main road is vehicle free. Families, couples and other tourist were sitting in
the chairs after their shopping (top photo). Some of they were playing games with their smart phones. kids were running behind.
One
corner of the area is under construction for redevelopment. The place will be
change into a new commercial, business and cultural complex. A tourist office
for foreigners is planned to be open in it.
With
consumption by Japanese people decreasing, Japanese shops are keen on expanding
their business for foreign tourists.
After enjoying shopping, the tourist got on the buses and moved to next places.
