Daikanyama Address
Just northwest of Daikanyama Station, this small retail complex is notable for its clever suspension bridges and four dozen or so designer boutiques selling clothing, eyewear and other sartorially stylish accessories. The open-air plaza is a treat on quiet afternoons, and weekends tend to be relatively free of mad throngs of shoppers.

Tokyo Midtown
Like Roppongi Hills, Tokyo Midtown is a composite urban district of ultramodern buildings surrounding a historic Japanese garden. Following the same design and urban planning lines that made Roppongi Hills so successful, the Tokyo Midtown complex brims with sophisticated bars, restaurants, shops, art galleries, a hotel and leafy public spaces. Escalators ascend alongside man-made waterfalls of rock and glass, bridges in the air are lined with back-lit washi (Japanese handmade paper), and planters full of soaring bamboo draw your eyes through skylights to the lofty heights of the towers above.

Yebisu Garden Place
This large mall has loads of upper-end shops and a basement full of good restaurants. Most of the wares here are the usual department store fare - high-quality, glitzy and somewhat characterless.

Decks Tokyo Beach
Decks is split into two malls, Island and Seaside. Both house a rainy day’s worth of browsing, and if you’re hungering for Chinese food, the Island Mall boasts Daiba Little Hong Kong. There’s also Tokyo Joypolis, a high-tech amusement park with virtual reality games and indoor roller-coasters.
