I just got back from NRT and thought I'd share where I went...somewhere different from AEON MALL. ITO YOKADO. It is a fairly sized "department store" complete with a food court and market downstairs in the basement. HUGE 100¥ store too!!! It takes up half a floor!
I wish I had taken more pictures so you get an idea...
For you DISNEY fans, there is a DISNEY store on the main floor.
So how do you get here?
Take the bus from the hotel to "downtown". Walk up to the train station. You want to catch the KEISEI train. You will pay 130Y for your ticket.
You are one stop away. KOZUNOMORI is the station you want...walk up to platforms 1 or 2 heading to UENO. (When you are walking twds the platform downstairs, you will see which stops the next train is heading for. The station names are lit. But I notice that if I go onto platform 1 or 2 it usually takes me there. And if it DOES pass KOZUNOMORI then get off at next station and backtrack)
Exit the station when you reach KOZUNOMORI.
Don't worry there is only ONE exit. Walk off to the right out the station and you will see this huge structure.
YOU MADE IT!
BASEMENT - food court (beard papa, tonkatsu, ramen, etc) and grocery store.
1st floor - shoes, bags, clothing, disney store
2nd floor - home, kids, toys, fabric
3rd floor - books, eyeglass, amusment, 100¥ store
Return trip is the same. 130Y. One stop away. NARITA station is where you came from.
Have fun! I sure did! :)
