Nippori Textile Town

Nippori Textile Town is also another paradise for crafters. Imagine a street on both sides of the road selling fabrics, laces, buttons, zips, beads etc! And they are cheaper than in Shinjuku.

Nippori 日暮里 JR station is located 1 stop after Ueno. If you are in Shinjuku, it is faster to take the JR Chuo line and change at Akihabara or you can just take the Yamanote line towards Ikebukuro. Exit at the South exit.

Welcome to Nippori Textile Town! There are many signs around leading you to the town.

This is an English map.

The most popular shop there is Tomato.

Note: Please bring cash because some of the shops do not accept credit cards.

If you do not have time to go Nippori, just go to Odakaya in Shinjuku (East exit, next to Alta building). It is 7-storey high and is like a megamart Golden Dragon (Singapore fabric store at Chinatown)!
