Combining shopping and dining, a literary bookstore, a natural ecological experience area, a picnic lawn, and other facilities, it forms an unprecedented all-in-one mall concept and is definitely a new must-visit attraction for travelers to Japan.
In recent years, Nagoya’s tourism popularity has continued to rise. Mitsui Fudosan Group, skilled in creating diverse commercial facilities, has specifically targeted the Central Japan Port Area, which boasts a seaport, aquarium, Ferris wheel, and observation deck, to develop a new shopping destination – the Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport NAGOYA MINATO AQULS, which grandly opened on September 28 this year.
After shopping, you can head to the outdoor plaza on the west side of LaLaport to relax, have a picnic, and enjoy the natural scenery
The park includes a series of high-sense brands such as Japan’s super-popular literary bookstore “Tsutaya Bookstore,” the California-originated apparel and goods store “RHC RON HERMAN,” the beloved “MUJI” and “LOFT,” the fashionable skincare brand “ALBION DRESSER,” and the home brand “MARKS & WEB,” as well as a variety of popular restaurants, totaling 217 stores to meet the needs of all age groups.

As soon as you step into the Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport NAGOYA MINATO AQULS, on the right side of the entrance is the super-popular literary bookstore “Tsutaya Bookstore.” Designed around the theme of “WITH FAMILY,” it carefully creates a relaxing atmosphere like a comfortable living room, emphasizing shared family reading time. Visitors can savor the rich bookish ambiance and warm lighting and decor here, as well as pick several books from the shelves to take to the specially designed café area, where they can enjoy a rich cup of coffee while immersing themselves in the pages of a book, spending a leisurely and restful time.
