  • I have caught word from ......
    that there is a candy shop in Tokyo that has been around since the Edo period, so I went to Zoshigaya to check it out.
    The "Kamigawaguchiya" has been operating a store here for 235 years.
    The sign proudly states "Established in 1781.
    The number of "candy shops" is getting fewer and fewer in Japan.
    You should definitely go there!
    Kamigawaguchiya
    Address: On the precincts of Kishimojin, 3-15-20 Zoshigaya, Toshima-ku, Tokyo
    Business hours: 10:00-17:00
    Closed: Rain, snow, typhoons, etc.
    WAO-RYU! ONLY in JAPAN will introduce the history, food, and other aspects of Japan from a foreigner's point of view in a high-quality documentary.
    We will show you the charms of Japan that even Japan doesn't know about.
    We look forward to your support.
    For business inquiries, please contact agency@wao-corp.com

    It's amazing how the lady has been working in the same small candy store for such a long time! It has probably became one with her already. Quite astonishing to see, especially since most people nowadays (including me) are constantly unhappy with their environment, moving, travelling, switching jobs etc. I can't say it's a bad thing, but it makes people like this lady all the more special. Very nice, relaxing video :)

    I used to work in a candy store that sold a lot of vintage American Candy.... I would love to be 80 years old, working in a candy store just like the one in this video 💖
    Thank you for the look into history!

      Lol, WAO Corp. always owned this channel. How can they steal what's already theirs?

    Charming host (like this fellow, commented about him before. He's agile and kind - with good spirit). Always fascinating to "dissect" Japanese packaging and concepts. Love the aspect of the historic candy stall. Will look out - with great enthusiasm - for more socio-cultural treasure - from this fellow, and your channel. Gentle thanks from the U.S.

    Given enough budget this host could revive the channel I think. Keep up the good work man.
