Detailed Travel Guide

Takeshita Street

Takeshita Street has been the fashion leader since late 70's. There are many unique and interesting shops in Takeshita Street. Most of the fashion stores are managed by individual, and not many large franchised stores.

Because it is very hard to survive as the fashion shops in Harajuku, only the best ones survives, and that's why Takeshita Street is the young fashion leader in Japan.
