Harajuku

A vibrant Tokyo district famed for its unique street fashion, youthful culture, trendy shops, and cosplay.

Tips from the community

As someone obsessed with fashion, it's no surprise that Harajuku is one of my favorite places to visit in Tokyo. Endless cobblestone pathways, avenues, and alleyways filled with local boutiques, specialty shops, and subculture fashion trends. Harajuku is an excellent spot for people-watching- the neon-colored streets are famed for hosting the most fashionable people in Japan. Laforet and Takeshita street are musts for any travelers visiting this eclectic neighborhood.
