Around Kintetsu Nara Station

There are plenty of places to shop and eat out around Kintetsu Nara Station and the arcades and streets running north and south from here make up the main shopping and dining area in Nara.

The main arcade streets are Higashimuki shotengai and its basically southern continuation Mochidono Center-gai. Recommended shops in this area include Mafu Okai Nara-ten which specializes in beautiful hemp bags and Ikeda Gankodo for folding fans and Nara-style round fans. Imanishi Honten specializes in traditional Nara pickles or tsukemono. Various vegetables such as gourds, eggplants and cucumbers are pickled for between 3-15 years in sake lees.
