Shibuya Crossing is one of the most famous intersection in the world. It’s like the equivalent of Times Square to New York City. Its scramble crossing which stops vehicles in all directions to allow pedestrians to inundate the entire intersection has become an iconic look of Tokyo. It is often featured in movies and television shows.The crossing is located just outside the Shibuya Station Hachiko exit. When exiting the station, be sure to visit the statue of Hachiko. For the best view of the Shibuya Crossing, head to the Starbucks store right by the intersection. Due to its magnificent view, this Starbucks branch is one of the busiest in the world.
