Akihabara proves to be a dream come true for techies. There are hundreds of shops full of the latest electronics throughout this district in Central Tokyo. As you walk the streets of Akihabara, you almost feel like you're in an actual video game.
As you shop in these stores, make sure you have your passport with you. Most stores, including Yodobashi offer tax-free shopping, but you must show your foreign passport. When buying items that you plug in, such as a hair dryer, make sure that you check the voltage as it may be made only to be used in Japan.
On Sundays, the main street in Akihabara is closed. If you visit Akihabara on the weekends, be prepared for crowds of people! Sometimes, it's even hard to walk!
Akihabara is an exciting place for people of all ages!
We walked through Akihabara to find Taito Station. This is a favorite spot for my girls!
The first floor of Taito Station is filled with these games.
