I would probably word it like this:

"Where can I exchange currencies around here? I need to exchange yen for dollars."
Or
"Is there somewhere nearby where I can exchange currencies? I need to exchange yen for dollars."

@literally8492 OK! Do American people use "Exchange shop"? Maybe it's Japanese English. "exchange currencies"! Thank you!

@Popcornweekend Aha! I see! I just say "shop" and explain what I want to do in the shop! OK! That makes sense! I think "exchange shop" is Japanese English!

@u-1 I've never heard someone say Exchange Shop (US). I've always just heard people say "I need to go to the bank and get Euros" or something like that.

@u-1
Exactly! Also, we are more likely to say store than shop in my part of the country.
I have to go to the store and get groceries.
I have to go to the bank to exchange my money from yen to dollars.
