Shibuya is one of Tokyo's best-known neighborhoods, thanks in particular to its mythical crosswalk, which can be seen in many movies.
It's a very lively district, animated thanks to many small and nice restaurants as well as various stores where you can walk around and discover the Japanese fashion culture.
Our favorite district for the hotel: it's indeed a central square of Tokyo (like Shinjuku) which easily serves other nice places when visiting the city.

This crosswalk present in Shibuya neighborhood is world famous for its videos of crowds crossing the square from side to side.
Cameras are present: the greatest inactivity on this crossing dates from 2010 with 9 seconds without a person crossing.
Featured in the film Hachi with Richard Gear, this statue is a memorial to the dog Hachik?, who waited for his master every day at the Shibuya train station, even after his death.
There is a bar in Shibuya: Umeshu gen & materials. This bar will propose you a very large variety of Umeshu (plum alcohol, about 14°) and arranged Umeshu. Don't miss it!
Close to the subway station, this store on several floors is really nice to do.
You will discover many small fashion stores, and will be able to dream in front of the very beautiful hostesses dressed in Japanese style present everywhere!
It provides a breathtaking view of the crosswalks of the square.
Don't hesitate to take a few minutes to go upstairs and take a picture ;)
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
Turtles are in economy mode when they are sleeping. If they are woken during night, they may not have enough air to return to surface.
So, please be careful during night dives!
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
