The entrance of Rondo shop

The street from Nikko station where you can find Rondo shop

I was stopped by that display of old Kokeshi dolls!

Inside the shop I found more old dolls and what not

"Antique" robots!

I picked this Samurai ningyo (doll)

Fine doll of composition material and Japanese fabrics

The owner of Rondo packed the doll for me

I decided to pick some more old dolls...

Finally, I picked three old Kokeshi dolls for very reasonable price!

I was happy and the owner too. She kindly went out to see me off. Matane!

On my walk to the hotel from Nikko Station, I found quite an interesting shop – Rondo Antique. I spent about an hour there examining old things that I’m always excited about. The owner was a nice lady who kindly allowed me to take my time. You can find all sorts of things there. As I’m a doll collector, I picked the Samurai doll just for ¥2000 and three old Kokeshi dolls for ¥500 each! I wish I could buy more, but a traveler must always think of carrying all the stuff back!
