The inspiration for night time sci-fi movies like Bladerunner, Shibuya district is Tokyo’s center of nightlife excitement. It has the world’s busiest intersection, with large crowds of pedestrians, and Tokyo’s busiest metro station.
Shibuya has a number of high-end shopping buildings, including Louis Vuitton Omotesando. A celebration of human creation, Shibuya sets many of the trends in Japan and internationally.
