Shopping at Donki (Don Quijote)

Shopping

Don Quijote or "Donki" is the place to go to buy just about everything! It's a discount store which sells electronics, clothes, costumes, makeup, sports equipment, snacks, food, drinks, games, bicycles, etc. and they are all a little cheaper than buying them somewhere else. And, they are open way past midnight!

The stores are all packed to the brim and it's like a maze inside. Finding what you want could be a little bit tricky, because the aisles are so narrow and the shelves are so tall, but you can bet that you will find something else you want on the way to whatever you're trying to find. What they have in each store is a little bit different according to it's size, so if you can't find what you want at one store, try another one.
Web


Donki has stores all around Japan, and there are more than 30 stores just in Tokyo. They even have one in Hawaii! You can find Donki in any one of the large cities in Tokyo, but if you're in Akihabara, and are planning to go to the electronics store, try exploring the corners of the city and stopping by Donki first. You might be able to find a better deal!

Access: Akihabara Station
Address: 4-3-3 Soto Kanda, Chiyoda-ku
Tel: 03-5298-5411
Business Hours: 10:00AM-5:00AM next day

Check out their homepage in English, Chinese, and Korean.

Kanagawa Tour Guide - Macco K.

Hello :) I am Macco, a licensed tour guide. I love eating and traveling, so I call myself "EATraveler". I'd like you to experience "tasty (oishi)" Japan, so my tour will be full of nice food. I was born and grew up in Osaka, and now I live in a small fishing town called Manazuru (near Hakone area) after living in Tokyo for more than 10 years. I fell in love with a beautiful scenary of the sea and mounains of Manazuru, and I really enjoy a relaxing life here. So I'd like to show you around this cozy town, which will make you feel nostargic and relaxed. I also work as an editor & writer. My recent works are mainly books about food and drinks, such as fermented food, dried food, cocktails and bars, Japanese sake, coffee, cheese, tea, as well as agriculture and food issues. Based on this background, I'd like to offer you amazing food experiences in Japan and enjoy EATraveling together :) Looking forward to seeing you in Manazuru!

I’m so excited to have a chance to show you around my favorite spots in Kanagawa prefecture. I was born in Kanagawa. I spent my whole school life, including university, here in Kanagawa. I worked as a high school English teacher here for 40 years. I love Kanagawa so much. We have many interesting tourist spots, like Hakone, Kamakura, Enoshima and Yokohama. I got my tour guide license in English in 2009. I am still an English teacher. To give an interesting and impressive lesson to young high school students, I’ve learnt and gathered many kinds of information. I also have a license to teach social studies, so I have a wide range of knowledge about Japanese culture and history. I’m sure to provide you an interesting tour.
