Urban Dock Lalaport Toyosu

Shop in comfort and style

On the very same day, the Sunday of Obon holidays, we went to both Sunshine City in Ikebukuro and Lalaport in Toyosu. We went to Sunshine City first and it was unbearably packed, so we were pleasantly surprised that there was room to breath in Lalaport. It was busy, but not chaotic like Sunshine City. We have a Lalaport in Saitama; it is mammoth and has a huge selection of shops. However, this Lalaport in Toyosu is far nicer even though it is only a quarter of the size. The building for one is designed better and is very stylish. There is also great views of the port from the middle section of the building, especially from the third floor. They have a really good selection of shops including a large Kinokuniya which has a fantastic English selection of books. There is also Yorozu Mart the official Yokai Watch shop. And of course it is the home to the hugely popular incredible play center "Kidzania". They have a good selection of eateries across a wide range of cuisines and price ranges. There is parking on the upper floors, but it is very convenient to come by train. Toyosu station on the Yurakucho line (subway / underground) is only a three minute walk away.
