Buzzing Harajuku is renowned for colorful street art and youth fashion, with quirky vintage clothing stores and cosplay shops along Takeshita Street, and traditional, upmarket boutiques on leafy Omotesando Avenue. Small, trendy bars fill the surrounding lanes, while dessert shops and carts specialize in sweet crêpes, donuts, and bubble tea. Watari Museum of Contemporary Art hosts cutting-edge temporary exhibitions.
Harajuku Station is adjacent to the mega sightseeing spot of Meiji Shrine and a stone’s throw away from Yoyogi Park. And just a block over you’ll find Omotesando, one of the poshest shopping streets in Japan. If you’re interested in architecture, then try this little walking tour we’ve put together.

Harajuku is defined by Takeshita Dori, a narrow alley that is filled with sweet scents, pink, bubblegum, and whatever’s cute, cheap, and now for the under-16 set. There are plenty of vintage and used clothing places like Kinji and Mirror and the general fashion is aimed at the young and eclectic, so prices are a bit more reasonable than neighboring Omotesando.

Cat Street (that cuts across Omotesando running parallel to Meiji Dori) is a short stroll away and well worth a peek while you’re in the area. It’s lined with quirky shops and features one of the most popular takoyaki places around. Also, fancy donuts and good coffee.

There’s also the weird and wacky Kawaii Monster Cafe, which we recommend experiencing as part of a guided tour that also takes in nearby Meiji Jingu Shrine
