During the National Day holiday, if you're traveling to Japan, it would be a pity to go through all the effort just for shopping. From September 30 (Wednesday) to October 13 (Tuesday), Takashimaya will host the NIPPON Monogatari event, showcasing Japan’s relentless pursuit of craftsmanship from tradition to modernity. From the treasured pieces of century-old shops to the masterpieces of up-and-coming designers and pastry artists, every displayed item can be considered a work of art. A casual stroll through the event becomes a journey of discovery where traditional Japanese culture meets modern creativity.
