Perie Chiba, which renovated and reopened in September 2017, is a very beautiful station building!
To get to the "Ekinaka" (inside the station) area of Perie Chiba, you can access it from the 3F concourse where the Chiba Station central ticket gates are located.
In other words, you can get there by getting off the train and going up the escalator.
And, I found a place where you can sit and take a break near the sweets corner on the 3rd floor inside the station!
There were four tables with two seats each and eight single chairs.
My first impression was, "There are tables and chairs inside the station!"
I don't see table seating at all inside the ticket gates, in the station area!
The fabric-covered chairs have a natural design and the shape of the backrests is unique.
I think it's convenient as a meeting place inside Chiba Station ♪
Also, a trash can has been installed next to the tables, so I think it's a useful space when you want to eat lunch boxes inside Chiba Station.
However, the 3rd floor is used by many people transferring trains, so it tends to be crowded during commuting hours.
If it's crowded, the "Perie Chiba Ekinaka 4F" is a convenient place to meet, as it has a wider rest space, so let's go there!
So, why not use it for shopping at Chiba Station, or as a meeting place or a place to take a break and sit down at Chiba Station?
