If you’re going to Tokyo, you have to go to Shibuya! As you know, it is a huge shopping area in Tokyo that is popular with foreigners. This shopping area gets a lot of interest from the younger generation, is visited by many overseas artists and includes many features you should visit at least once.

These include the Shibuya Station pedestrian scramble, the department store Shibuya 109, Cat Street, Takeshita Street and Ura-Harajuku. There is even a tour of beauty parlors available for tourists who want to get their hair cut at a stylish beauty parlor in Shibuya.

Meiji Jingu Shrine, with its impressive appearance and abundant greenery, is famous as a “power center.” It is a place where you can see a different side of Shibuya removed from the surrounding commotion.
