Retailer Heralds Autumn Bounty

Saturday, October 29, 2011

Ginza Waco luxury department store and one of the few buildings that survived WWII bombings, has long attracted the cameras of tourists with its elegant window dressings to mark the seasons.

Ginza Waco started life in Tokyo as a jewelry store before the present building replaced an older Meiji era building in 1932.

As did its predecessor, it remains a landmark with a clock tower that marks its famous product, the Seiko watch.
