Would you like to search for fragments of old Japan together?

Once a month, a small market opens in Tokyo: the Yanaka Antique Market. Showa-era tableware, Taisho-era sundries, vessels crafted by nameless artisans. Memories from eras with no price tags are laid out on tables.

Your guide Mana is an ordinary Tokyo office worker who simply can't get enough of antiques. On her days off, she wanders through the market alone, buying old plates she loves and using them at her own dining table every day. Once she starts talking about why she loves a piece, she simply can't stop.

On this tour, you'll walk through the Yanaka Antique Market with Mana and experience the world of Japan's "old things." It's less about what you buy, and more about what catches your eye. Let's enjoy that feeling together.
