Ginza is the place where all shoppers (mostly women, funnily enough) go to buy luxurious designer item merchandise needs. Ohhhhh yes be sure of that. Lurid ladies and suited men (not many, though!) hang around Ginza with their petite bags and packages containing all the required designer needs they think will enhance their lives forever. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice area! It has a world famous Kabuki theatre (Kabuki-za, below) and (much more importantly) the Ginza Lion Beer Hall! (On the next page!) Kampai!!
