Tsuruya Department Store (鶴屋百貨店) 鶴屋百貨店
Since 2015 the only department store in Kumamoto: 76,592 m² across four buildings.
Founded in 1952, it is the last department store left in Kumamoto: its long-standing rival, which stood not far away, closed in 2015, and since then the city has had only one. The four buildings – 本館, 東館 (テトリアくまもと), WING and New-S – together have 76,592 square metres of sales floor, seventh place in Japan among independent department stores, that is, those that do not belong to a national chain. On the sixth floor of the main building, next to the children's department, there is an indoor play area.
