Hachiko
The statue of Hachiko, standing quietly in front of Shibuya Station, is loved by many people as more than just a bronze statue. The statue is a representation of the touching true story of **Hachiko the Loyal Dog**, who waited for his deceased owner at Shibuya Station for about 10 years. The greatest appeal of the statue of Hachiko is that it is also a symbol of **loyalty and deep affection**. The story of Hachiko tells us of the inestimable bond and the irreplaceable love that exists between humans and animals. Since the statue is installed facing the scramble crossing, a symbol of Shibuya, it always has a strong presence among the many people passing by. For visitors to Shibuya, the statue of Hachiko is a familiar landmark** in the most obvious meeting place, “Hachiko-Mae” (in front of Hachiko). The Hachiko statue is truly a “living symbol” that amidst the hustle and bustle of Shibuya, inspires and warms the hearts of all who visit.
Shibuya Crossing
This massive intersection is right in front of Hachiko Exit. Hundreds, even thousands, of people start crossing from all directions at once. It's an incredible sight, like watching a giant human performance unfold. It was a regular intersection. But due to increased traffic and the need for pedestrian safety, the "scramble system" was introduced in the 1970s., changing how the signals switched. Since then, it's grown in size and fame along with Shibuya's development, becoming an icon of Japan now. The biggest draw is definitely the moment huge crowds starts moving all at once. This unique mix of "chaos" and "harmony" is something you can only experience here.Just standing here, you can feel its vibrancy and dynamism firsthand. Shibuya Crossing is more than just a place to get across the street. It's a special place where you can truly experience the "now" of Shibuya and Tokyo, absorbing all its energy. Make sure to capture this one-of-a-kind scene in your mind and on your camera
