✨ Why It’s a Must

Harajuku isn’t just a neighborhood, it’s a living runway. From kawaii overload to punk streetwear, this is where Tokyo’s youth experiment with identity, color, and confidence. Takeshita Street is the beating heart, but wander deeper to find indie boutiques, vintage shops, and fashion subcultures redefining what it means to stand out.

🛍️ What to Do

Walk Takeshita Street – High-energy, colorful, perfect for street snacks and people-watching

Shop Unique – Hit WEGO, Bubbles, or Kinji for affordable vintage and quirky finds

Style Spotting – Cosplayers and fashion kids often pose here, and they’re used to cameras

Snack Stop – Try rainbow cotton candy, crepes with strawberries and whipped cream, or a colorful bubble tea

Explore More – Cat Street offers a chill contrast with cool cafés and curated fashion

🧭 Insider Tip

Head to the rooftop garden at Tokyu Plaza Omotesando. It’s quiet, photogenic, and a great reset spot after the Harajuku rush.
Loud, colorful, and full of personality. Harajuku is Tokyo’s fashion lab, where creativity walks the streets and sweets come wrapped in pastel perfection. Come for the looks, stay for the crepes
