I love the small traditional Japanese stores and I love that in Japan there are still many of them around, in small towns but also in large cities. I cannot resist the temptation to visit them, even for just a minute and I usually end up buying something…
Many of them are located in very old buildings, passed on from the previous generations, like the store from this photo. And the sellers are sure to make you feel welcome, as only the Japanese can!
