All About Japan’s Department Store Rooftop Gardens

In a select number of Japan’s major department stores, you may find rooftop gardens where you can dine on picnic tables, take a rest of benches, and walk through perfectly manicured gardens.

These gardens and terraces are the ideal places to taste and feast on your food shopping from the depachika (basement floor food halls). They also serve as a quiet area to take a break from your busy days in Japan’s major cities.
