Furusato Exchange Shop Taito switches to Tako Town on July 9

The weekly rotating antenna shop in Senzoku-dori Shopping Street will feature Chiba Prefecture's Tako Town through July 14.

Taito City's 2026 schedule says Furusato Exchange Shop Taito will switch to Chiba Prefecture's Tako Town from Thursday, July 9, to Tuesday, July 14, 2026.

The shop is a rotating antenna shop where municipalities from around Japan appear by the week. For people walking around Oku-Asakusa or Senzoku-dori Shopping Street, this is a short fixed-period change rather than a permanent shop opening.

The city overview lists the address as 4-36-5 Asakusa, Taito City, inside Senzoku-dori Shopping Street. Regular hours are 10:00 to 19:00, with Wednesday as the regular closed day, but the lineup and operation can change by host municipality, so check the official schedule before visiting.
