For people who love to travel, there are probably many who buy souvenirs with the names of the cities they've visited. One famous example is "I LOVE NY" merchandise from New York. To these people we would now like to introduce merchandise from the official brand of Tokyo, "TokyoTokyo". A pop up store will open December 27, in the bookstore Maruzen Marunouchi Main Store (1 minute walk from Tokyo station). The editorial department has selected five recommended items to introduce from the merchandise available at the pop up store.

Recommended product ①: Happy Daruma / MameHapy

First appearing in the Edo period, "Daruma" dolls are lucky charms for people's wishes. The eyes are left blank because you draw them in when the wish comes true. The weight on the bottom makes sure it stands up again if it tips over, symbolising the spirit of not giving up. Usually, the beard and eyebrows on "Daruma" dolls are drawn in black, but with wishes of success and victory, this "Happy Daruma" features a gold colour. Each modern "Daruma" doll is handmade, each one has its own character and is unique in its own way.

■TokyoTokyo is an ICON that promotes the charm of Tokyo to the world!

"Traditions handed down from the Edo period and cutting-edge culture that continues to innovate. The two coexist and deepen each other, creating new value every day. The fun. The energy. Let people know more about it. Let people feel it. Tokyo will surely enthrall the world".

It was created as part of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's efforts to establish the "Tokyo Brand", which gives a strong impression of Tokyo as a travel destination. "Tokyo" in brushstrokes and "Tokyo" in Gothic script express the characteristics of Tokyo, where Edo-period tradition coexists with an advanced culture.

A wide range of products have been designed with the Tokyo Tokyo concept in mind, as well as original plans to create an attractive Tokyo souvenir.

There are many interesting designs and quality products that you can pick up and admire. Why not find your own unique souvenir?
