Kintetsu Department Store - Ikoma

Located directly at Ikoma Station, this mid-sized department store is a convenient, less-crowded alternative to Nara City's busier hubs. While it features typical fashion and cosmetic brands, the real highlight is the basement food hall (depachika), which boasts a fantastic selection of regional Japanese sweets, fresh bento boxes, and local sake. It is a perfect, stress-free stop to pick up high-quality picnic supplies before heading up the Ikoma Cable Car.
