Shopping in Western Honshū

  1. Global Lounge

    Formerly known as Book Nook, Global Lounge has second-hand Western books, mostly trade paperbacks, a notice board, and internet access (with special rates if you become a member). It also sells beers, wine and cocktails, and its English-speaking staff are happy to provide tourist information. It's in a language school called Outsider behind Iyo Bank and Yamaha music store. Look for the 2nd-floor sign.

  2. Komachi

    Handmade on site at this small shop are souvenir craft items, such as dolls, trinkets and accessories, using material from old kimonos. Look for the sign with the words 'I make an accessory with an old kimono'.
