The two main shopping streets are Shinjuku Dori Avenue and Yasukuni Dori Avenue. The heart of Shinjuku Dori sprawls out a street of shopping and gourmet dining. Don't forget too, all the little streets in between. Studio Alta, with its giant TV screen, hugs the roundabout and is directly opposite My City. As a popular rendezvous point, the entrance is often so crowded that meeting the person you're supposed to be meeting is really no option at all. Department stores as Mitsukoshi, MARUI CITY, and Isetan stand side by side along with such well-known shops as Shinjuku Nakamuraya, Shinjuku Takano, and Kinokuniya Bookstore. The Suehiro-tei is a permanent theater and playhouse that carries down, with spirit, a legacy from a vintage time when such variety as stand-up comedy, comic backchat, magic and storytelling were the main means of entertainment - the time of the theater's inception.
