Ameya Yokocho

Ameya Yokocho is known as Ameyoko and it's an area between JR Ueno station and JR Okachimachi station which is filled with many many unique stores.

"Ameya" means Candy store and "Yokocho" means alley.
There's another theory that "Ameya" means American store since American ex-service goods were sold just after World War II.

Sea foods, snacks, clothes and shoes are popular here but there're a lot of specialty stores.  
Stores may discount the price or may give you some extra.
