Hv to go if visiting ueno park as just next to it. A lot of cheap stuffs, clothes and shops that can't find elsewhere but those items are usually outdated if not obsoleted. However, it seems a good experience as tourist. Could go during evening for more diversity.

Just south of the Ueno station is this section of streets with tons of shops and lots of people. I was a bit disappointed in this area as the variety of shopping was not that good. The basic theme is pachinko/slots, shoes, golf equipment, and grocery type shops selling unprepared seafood/fish. You really aren't missing anything if you skip it.

Ameyoko Street is near the Ueno station. On the weekends it is very crowded with visitors. There are many small shops here, selling food, shoes, and clothes. There are also many bars and restaurants in this area.

Ameyoko Shopping Street is not to be missed. It sits alongside the train tracks leading to Ueno Station and is packed with people, restaurants, pachinko parlors, clothes stores, and food markets. My favorite store is the one selling Soviet army hats and the like.

If you are a visitor, you will probably enjoy seeing all the different little shops of food/souvenirs/clothing/luggage there are at Ameyoko shopping district. I found a 100-yen store there that I spent a considerable amount of time in because they had many things that the larger "chain" 100-yen stores do not carry. I also found some cute souvenirs in other... More
