Über diesen Tip
In the open plaza of Tokyo International Forum, in front of Yurakucho Station, the Oedo Antique Market gathers many dealers selling Japanese crafts and old objects, and it is free to browse. It runs on selected dates, roughly twice a month, rather than every week, so check the organisers' calendar for your trip. It is held outdoors and weather can shorten the day, so go in the morning and look for Edo-era workmanship.
