Takeshita Street, located in the heart of Harajuku in Tokyo, Japan, is a bustling pedestrian street renowned for its unique and trendy shops. Famous for its vibrant fashion scene, it’s a hub for Japan’s youthful and often quirky street styles. Alongside clothing and accessory stores, the street is lined with a variety of cafes and eateries, offering treats like crepes and bubble tea. It’s a must-visit destination for those looking to experience the energetic and colorful culture of modern Tokyo.
Takeshita Street can be seen right in front of you as soon as you exit through the Takeshita exit of Harajuku Station on the JR Yamanote Line.
Until around 9:00 a.m. on weekdays, there are few shops open, so there are not many tourists.
But after around 9:00 a.m., people start to gradually increase, and it begins to get crowded.
During the New Year holidays, Japan has consecutive days off, attracting many tourists, and at peak times, it looks like this!
In Japanese, this situation is described as “Ashi no fumiba mo nai,” which literally means “there’s no place to step your feet.” It’s incredibly crowded, just like the phrase suggests!
In Takeshita Street, there are several coin lockers available, but depending on the time of day, they are often all in use!
HIS Harajuku Tourist Information Center, which handles Xiaxia Hijab, also offers a luggage storage service! If you find it cumbersome to tour Takeshita Street while carrying a heavy suitcase, please feel free to use this service. It’s just a 10-second walk from the entrance of Takeshita Street!
