Ginza-Dori (Ginza Street)
Chuo-Dori, which runs 1km from the 1-chome area near the Kyobashi district to the 8-chome area near the Shimbashi district, is called Ginza-Dori (or Ginza Street). On Saturday and Sunday afternoons, Ginza-Dori becomes a pedestrian paradise and many people enjoy "Gin-bura", Japanese for "taking a stroll in Ginza". Chairs and parasols for those in need of a rest are provided on the street.

Kabukiza (Kabuki Theater)
Kabukiza is a Kabuki theater first established in 1889. It was reconstructed after the Great Kanto Earthquake of September 1923, and today's building is a 1951 reconstruction of the second building following destruction in World War II. This Momoyama-style building is a landmark in the Ginza area. Vermillion-lacquered circular columns in the entrance hall and a scarlet carpet provide for a most prestigious atmosphere. For those interested in seeing Kabuki, single shows can be enjoyed inexpensively by buying a "Makumi" seat, (One-act) ticket.
