What is the difference between Tokyo Hands and Tokyu Hands? I don't think Tokyo Hands is a real store.
What is the address of the Samurai Museum?

I apologize for the confusion. The correct name of the store is Tokyu Hands, not Tokyo Hands. Tokyu Hands is a real store chain in Japan that sells a variety of household items, including souvenirs and stationery.

The address of the Samurai Museum is:

2-25-6 Kabukicho, Shinjuku 160-0021, Tokyo, Japan

The museum is located in the Kabukicho area of Shinjuku, and is easily accessible by train or subway.
