Nihonbashi's Neighborhood Noren Gallery

By Spoon & Tamago

To commemorate and remember their neighborhood, over 30 Nihonbashi-based businesses came together to create noren that symbolized their own identity. They were all hung along a 525-ft (160-meter) underground passageway at Mitsukoshi-mae Station, effectively recreating a 200-year old picture scroll.
