Tokyo Kyukyodo (Ginza Main Store)

4.0

This longstanding store in Ginza specializes in incense, stationary, and Japanese paper products. They originally opened in Kyoto as a pharmacy in 1663, then eventually switched to selling incense and stationary. Seeking to preserve traditional Japanese culture their products serve to show off the skills of the craftsmen that make them. They offer writing paper, postcards, Japanese paper crafts, and incense which make fantastic gifts, as well as calligraphy tools recommended by masters of the art.
