About Ginza
Ginza is Tokyo's equivalent of the Champs-Élysées or Bond Street - Japan's most prestigious shopping and cultural district, lined with flagship stores of Chanel, Hermès, Cartier, Louis Vuitton and Apple, alongside the Kabuki-za (Japan's principal kabuki theatre) and numerous art galleries. On Sundays, Chuo-dori Avenue is closed to traffic for the famous 'Ginza Walk' pedestrian event.
