1: Hachiko faithful dog

Hachiko is an Akita dog which is natural monument dog of Japan.

He lived 1923-1935.

Hachiko waited his master at this place 10 years after the master passed away.

This story is covered by Hollywood movie HACHI starring by Richard Gere.

Now it’s a meeting place for people!

2: Shibuya crossing

Shibuya crossing

The bossiest crossing in the world.

At most 3000 people cross here on 1 signal.

On Halloween day, big sports events day, new year’s eve many people gather here naturally.

3: Yoyogi park

ANAGUMA cafe in Harajuku

Young girl’s Mecca for chilling out with friends.

There are numerous shops, restaurants!

The price is relatively cheap because main consumers are low teen girls .

There is a popular cotton candy store of rainbow colors!
Also we visited Anaguma cafe which is only bear hand’s appears from the wall!

6: Togo shrine

If you walk in just 2 minutes from Takeshita street, you stumble upon Togo shrine.

It has a beautiful Japanese garden with pond.

The contrast of busy Takeshita street and quiet Togo shrine is quite intense!

why don’t you enjoy 2 major places in one day?
