📚 One of Japan’s most famous bookstore chains is opening INSIDE THE LOOP in Houston! 🇯🇵 Kinokuniya is opening a new location in Rice Village, its second in the Houston area after Katy. 📖 Kinokuniya is known for its huge selection of manga, Japanese and English-language books, art and design titles, magazines and Japanese-language releases. ✏️ It’s also much more than a traditional bookstore, with Japanese stationery, pens, notebooks, collectibles, pop-culture merchandise and imported goods that can be difficult to find at major American chains. 🏗️ A recent state filing lists approximately $1.1 million in renovations for the new store. 🗓️ Construction is currently expected to finish in early 2027. 📍 2369 Rice Blvd., Houston, TX 77005 🏘️ Rice Village #kinokuniya #houstontexas #houstonthingstodo
