Brick streets, the Wako clock and a century of Japanese obsession with quality.
Ginza reads as luxury shopping, but underneath it is the district where Japan rehearsed being modern. We follow the brick-town story, the Wako clock tower, the kabuki theatre and the galleries hidden above the flagship stores.
