Points of Interest & Landmarks
The Tanukikoji Shopping Street is a long, covered shopping street that stretches for 656 feet and dates back to 1868. The arcade offers kitschy, cheap eats as well as knock-offs and the like for people bored with sterile shopping malls. Further west on the arcade roof, the stores become more decrepit. Worth exploring for Hokkaido souvenirs and other Japanese-style whimsy.
