An exciting new Japanese precinct Tokyo Town opens today at Level 2 of Pavilion Bukit Jalil – celebrating Japanese food, retail, arts and culture.

Welcome to Tokyo Town!
Be transported instantly to the land of the rising sun with two larger-than-life artistic Sumo Sculptures greeting shoppers at the entrance of Tokyo Town.
The sense of Tokyo is also embodied in the precinct’s design and layout where a grand floating temple roof inspired and designed with ‘kirizuma-zukuri’ or gable roof style – the basic architectural style in ancient Japan, enhanced by giant Japanese umbrellas or ‘Wagasa’ designed by renowned Japanese artist Kotaro Nishibori, fifth generation successor of Hiyoshiya, a maker of ‘Kyo-wagasa’ (Kyoto-style traditional umbrella).
Shoppers are further greeted into a shopping street in Tokyo Town precinct, also known as “Nakamise” in Japanese with a symbolic and grand Torii Gate – featuring unique and cultural decorations ahead such as cochin or Japanese traditional lanterns, beautiful Sakura trees adorned with tanabata wishes and carp streamers as well as a grand and gorgeous Kimono Art Tapestry on exhibit which transports visitors directly to the heart of Japan.
