1. JR Yamanote Line “Harajuku Station” Omotesando Exit
Getting Around: Your Guide to Harajuku Station
The JR Yamanote Line’s “Harajuku Station” is famous worldwide. The Omotesando Exit, towards Shibuya and Shinagawa, is teeming with shoppers and travelers from afar.
Upon exiting the station, you’ll be greeted by rows of gingko trees that line the path to Meiji Jingu Shrine. “Sando” (参道) refers to a path leading to a shrine or temple. That’s why this area is called “Omotesando.”
5 minutes down Omotesando towards Aoyama, you’ll find the fashion center that stands as a beacon of youth culture, “Harajuku Laforet.” You can shop for anything from reasonably-priced brands for students to mode fashion like Vivienne Westwood.
This is the crossroad in front of Meiji Jingu Shrine. On the right is a somewhat narrow street. This street actually connects Shibuya to Harajuku in what is known as “Cat Street.”
The essence of “Urahara” fashion (a subculture born on the backstreets of Harajuku) is packed into Cat Street’s shops. This type of Japanese street culture arose in these backstreets during the 80’s. It’s a popular destination for those crazy for fashion and music even today.
2. JR Yamanote Line “Harajuku Station” Takeshita-dori Exit
Harajuku Station’s Takeshita-dori Exit leads towards Shinjuku and Ikebukuro. You can see the famous street right as you exit the ticket gate.
