Shinjuku Market District

The Shinjuku Market District is the new primary commercial area on Hanako's World. Built in YE 35, hopes to eventually compete with Kyoto, Yamatai and Gunther Shopping Center to be the SARPiverse's greatest shopping district.

It is divided into two major sections: the restaurants and the shops, and is also full of street vendors. The buildings are built in a historic-inspired style with decorative carved stone and brick facades. In YE 36, Shinjuku Starport was built next to the market district, placing the centers of transportation and commerce next to each other for maximum convenience.

Transportation

The newly-constructed Shinjuku Starport is located at one end of the market district, meaning travelers have immediate walking access to cars, trains, and starships. See the starport's page for details on travel destinations.
