A long shopping street (think is around 3 km long). This is where girls would find this place interesting with cheap clothing everywhere ranging from 500 - 1000 yen. Also the street where you find typical japanese daily use products and cheaper SKII, Kose and other branded cosmetic products (if compare with where I come from). For guys, not so... More

It was a very long stretch of road to walk, lotsa of eating and shopping to do around here. Local shops were quite pricey to do any good shopping and we mostly shopped in familiar places like H&M and uniqlo. We even managed to snag quite a few good deals! We didn't manage to cover the entire street but enough... More

We love shinsaibashi!, there's so much to see and do. There's so much shopping in the vicinity of Shinsaibashi, Daimaru, Tokyu hands, Gap, H&M, United Arrows etc. Our fave sushi and sashimi dining place right opposite Daimaru is also there. They've been there for over 100 years. How amazing and delicious!!

If you like that kind of thing. It was raining the day we wandered through there so the covered walkways were welcome. Lots of places to poke your nose into and plenty of places to find something to eat.
