Day 4 in Japan – Part 2

Next we went back to Shinjuku because I wanted to check out a fabric shop I heard about.

some really colourful neon-colour cellphones

Our destination was “Okadaya“, a multi-level fabric shop I heard about online. We checked out all floors, unfortunately I wasn’t that excited about it as we saw a lot more in Fabric Town in Nippori before already. However, the shop opposite, which also belongs to Okadaya, is totally worth a visit. See some pictures below:

We went back to our hotel, picked up our stuff and took the express train to the airport.
