What makes this place special?
At a Glance
Takeshita Street is Harajuku’s fashion and sweets street, where colourful boutiques and crepe shops concentrate Tokyo’s kawaii style. Across from JR Harajuku Station, the shopping street brings together clothing, accessories and small takeaway treats in a compact pedestrian setting.
It is a street of independent visits rather than one attraction with a common schedule. Explore the shopfronts or use the association’s map to pick specific stops, keeping space for the people moving through the narrow shopping area.

Know before you go
