Asakusabashi Craft Materials Wholesale District

The area around Asakusabashi Station is Japan's largest craft materials wholesale district, with specialty stores for ribbons, beads, accessory parts, fabrics, artificial flowers, and more lining the streets. It's an area visited by a wide range of people, from professional creators to hobbyist handmade enthusiasts. Since you can buy at wholesale prices, you can often get materials for less than half the retail price. Recently, accessory makers and handmade creators have been promoting on SNS, and more young visitors are coming. The seasonal displays are fun just to look at.
