all of shibuya is shopping central especially for the 15-25 aged crowd. many many many trendy clothes shops, also music shops like the 5 storey HMV and virgin records and starbucks!!!!
anything. but the cool thing is around new years, a happy bag (grab bag) for aound 5000 yen (about 45$ usa) is a bag full of surprises but decent gifts!!! Leave a Comment Theme: Other |
Kiddy Land is around the Shibuya/Harajuku area... easily accessible by both... and a very well known shop! Five levels of toys!!!! Even for the young adult, Kiddy Land is definatly well worth the visit! Just make sure you set aside enough time: the 2 hours I was there was no where near enough. Leave a Comment |
I had a ball in Shibuya! The fashion in this district is young and funky! Imagine skirts boot and tights! I shopped at a tower looking building named Shibuya 109, very interesting layout inside. There are lots more shops just outside the Hachikô Exit from the Shibuya station. Coffee places are plentiful and so are the people! I could of crossed the intersection in the photo a million times, it was like in the movies where u feel like you are standing still and life is moving at a very fast past all around.
Tights, boots, skirts, funky jackets, lots of accessories and hats. The shops in Shibuya are for people in their 20's.

Full of plenty of shops, bars, restaurants and department stores, Shibuya is where teenagers and music shoppers hang out. We went to Disk Union, a 3-storey music shop sells both used and new CDs, vinyl records and DJ equipments. In Tokyo, it is the best place for music shopping as they tend to stock all kinds of rare music that you can’t find back home. Used CDs are best buy. I got a Silent Poets album for 1200 yen and also was recommended to some new music produced in Japan.
Used but as good as new CDs/vinyl records and DJ equipments.
Very cheap for DJ equipments Leave a Comment Theme: MusicDirections: JR / Tokyo Metro SHIBUYA |
Department stores: Tokyu Hands
There's a lot of history behind this store. One anecdote is that in 1964, Tokyu Railway company decided to face the competition of the Seibu Railway Co. and create the Tokyu 109. "10" means to and 9 means "kyu". A success story was built.
Everything from housewares to handicraft

Where do you find all the Japanese upcoming and established designer clothes shops in 1 or …may be within 3 buildings? They are in PARCO Part 1, 2 and 3 in Shibuya. Hundreds of boutiques stocking both European and local design labels of accessories, cosmetics and clothing – all very expensive and too trendy to wear if you don’t live in Japan. I tried a top on in ‘mercibeaucoup’ – the current darling in Japanese fashion! It looked very interesting hanging but made me look like a bag lady on me! Of course I didn’t get it but I guess I am too old for that kind of style anyway but happily I had saved 10,000 yen because of that! Leave a Comment |
This one is self-explanatory... It's The Disney Store! However, it is nothing like the Disney stores I have been to in the past. It has 3 floors, and the interior is indescribable! Naturally, it has anything and everything you could think of in the Disney theme, though I can not recall the prices of things.
Also, if you are interested in Tokyo Disneyland, tickets are sold on the third floor. |
Tokyu Hands is a wonderful place to shop! It has many floors, each with different sorts of items. It has reasonable prices and has a wide variety of products. It also has elevators, so it is handicap accessible.
At Tokyu Hands, you can buy anything!
How much you can expect to spend simply depends on what you are looking for... If you plan to browse throughout the entire store (or most of it) I would recommend bringing a lot of money since it has so many neat things. |
Tokyu Hands is like Home Depot in US or Canadian Tyre in Canada. A hardware shop where you can find all kinds of tools and materials you need for building your house.
They also have shops in Shinjuku and Ikebukuro, but some say the one in Shibuya is the biggest.
You can find almost everything you need to build a house and decorate it the way you like. I always go there to look for ideas to improve my own house. In here you can always get some ideas how Japanese people live and how they deal with household problems in their everyday life.
Staff are pretty knowledgable about the section they are working in and are very helpful. Don't expect they could speak English though.
I always have endless ideas about things I could create with all the materials in the shop when I'm there. This is another place I could stay for a whole day. |
