Akihabara

Akihabara is the famed electronics shopping district of Tokyo, where you can buy hot new electronic toys in any number of retail stores. One interesting tidbit is that, because space is so limited, these buildings all have a very small footprint but go up several levels to accommodate all of the gear. If you go shopping here, be ready to climb the stairs!
