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.

I was born and grew up in Yokohama. I used to work in Tokyo for more than 20 years. I became the National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter in English in 2013. At first, I had attended a volunteer group which provided a tour of the Imperial Palace East Gardens until 2015. I guided more than fifty times in the garden as a volunteer and studied about Japanese history and culture. Based on this experience, I became a tour guide of this online site in 2015. Since then, I have guided more than 500 tours in Tokyo as well as Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, Kyoto, Nikko, etc., while improving my tours. My tours are very flexible and I always do my best to customize them according to the interests of my guests. I studied about the places and will provide you knowledge to appreciate them more deeply than just visiting there by yourself or a member of group tours. I like foods and I know many restaurants which provide typical Japanese lunch with reasonable price without waiting too long. Therefore, I am sure that I can provide you the best tours customized to your interests. It will be my great pleasure to help you to enjoy your stay in Japan. So please be my guest!!
