Osaka's Nipponbashi area is widely known as "Denden Town," and comparable to Tokyo's Akihabara area, it is the largest electronics shopping district in western Japan. It's also famous for its pop culture connections. In addition to specialty stores selling computers, electronic parts, and home appliances, there are also more than 500 anime shops, video game shops, robot shops, and maid cafes. Drop by the Nippombashi General Information Center if you're having trouble finding a particular shop or item in the area! In addition to our regularly updated Japanese area map, we also distribute English, Chinese, and Korean language translations. We also store luggage, and offer great exchange rates on currencies from 12 countries.
