Climb up Dogenzaka, the iconic hill that has been at the center of Shibuya’s nightlife for decades. Here, you’ll find everything from cozy izakayas and stylish cocktail bars to live music venues and love hotels that glow with neon signs. Dogenzaka is a little wild, a little mysterious, and always full of stories waiting to happen. By day, it’s a bustling shopping area; by night, it transforms into a playground of lights and laughter, where Tokyo locals unwind after work.

No visit to Shibuya is complete without standing at the Shibuya Scramble Crossing, the world-famous intersection that symbolizes Tokyo’s dynamism. When the lights turn green, hundreds—sometimes thousands—of people cross from every direction in a moment of organized chaos. Surrounding the crossing are panoramic-view cafés, rooftop bars, and observation decks where you can watch the mesmerizing flow from above. It’s not just a crossing—it’s a Tokyo moment you’ll never forget.
