Takeshita Dōri

Tourist attraction
1-chōme-7-6 Jingūmae, Shibuya City, Tokyo 150-0001, Japan
Takeshita Dōri

"I’ll walk over to Harajuku. It's like its own complete culture there — whatever the style happens to be that year, everybody's dressed in it. I just appreciate the completeness and the commitment to the culture. Walk down Takeshita Dōri and soak it in because that's the center of current culture."
