A vast electronics/camera/computer shop on the doorstop of Kyoto Station with rock-bottom prices and a huge selection of goods.

Just a few minutes’ walk directly north of Kyoto Station on Karasuma-dori Street, this enormous electronics and camera emporium gives nearby Bic Camera a run for its money. While we prefer Bic Camera because it’s a lot easier to navigate, Yodobashi has some great deals and a good selection of restaurants on the 6th floor.
