Occupying a space comparable to that of Tokyo Dome, the newly opened Urban Dock LaLaport Toyosu is officially Tokyo's largest shopping mall.
Constructed on the site of a former dock on Tokyo Bay, the massive complex covers about 10 hectares and houses 190 stores, eateries and service providers.
The shopping at LaLaport, which opened Oct. 5, is unlikely to blow your mind -- unless you're the type who's never been to GAP, UNIQLO or HMV -- so it's a good thing that there are many things to do here besides just browsing stores. And that makes it an ideal day-trip for all the family during the forthcoming winter vacation.
