This downtown neighborhood is chockablock with treats for you and your grandchildren. It’s a fantastic place to search for eccentric gifts and trinkets to bring back home. Stores on both ends of the price spectrum sell staples and novelties imported from Japan. You can find strange stickers, stuffed animals, candy for the kids, as well as more sophisticated home décor and handcrafts for the grown-ups at the quirky shops lining the streets of this small neighborhood teeming with surprises.
