The City of Morioka...and Depachikas!
While I was touring the city of Morioka, Japan, I also stumbled upon an amazing department store in the basement of an amazing building. Soon after, I began researching these amazing basement shopping centers (named Depachikas). Since one project influenced another, I put them together for this video.
