[MOVIE] Tokyo Shibuya｜Shibuya Station Area Map & Sightseeing Information

Last updated: 11 May 2020

Famous for its dizzyingly busy scramble crossing and its shopping centers, Shibuya is a place where people of all ages can have fun day and night but only if they are willing to brave the agoraphobia-inducing crowds. Most first-time visitors will first stop and say hi to Hachiko, the dog whose love and devotion has been bringing people to tears for almost a century. From a village in the 19th century, Shibuya became one of the most famous Tokyo district. This is especially true among the youth who come to enjoy worldwide renowned fashion department stores, such as the Shibuya 109, located close to the Station. A little further away, along the Dogenzaka area, some of the best nightclubs, restaurants and bars in the city are always attract a diversified clientele.

Shibuya Crossing Area

One of the most famous landmark in the area is the Hachiko statue, meeting point but also photo spot for tourists. Don’t hesitate to take a moment to watch all the lights turn red at the same time and see the pedestrians surging into the intersection, a sight that never wearies.
Literally two minutes away from the crossing is the perfect place for those looking for a more traditional experience: Nonbei Yokocho. Meaning literally “drinkers alley”, this Showa retro style street is filled with dozens of traditional taverns.
In the walkway within Mark City, a famous shopping facility in the area, is a masterpiece by Taro Okamoto, Myth of Tomorrow. This huge mural features the moment of an atomic bomb, and is a powerful artwork to see.
