Have you ever been to Shibuya? Shibuya is famous for the most fashionable and the newest city in Tokyo, Japan. Shibuya is always holding fashionable events and innovation to change our society.
Around Shibuya, there are many famous cities such as Nakameguro, Shimokitazawa, Omotesando street etc.
If you have a plan to explore Shibuya, I’d like to show you to some spots to enjoy a fashionable experience.

1. Nakameguro
Actually, I’ve written about Nakameguro already, so please check this link.
To read this post, you’ll be able to understand an attraction of Nakameguro. However, last time, I went to a restaurant with a friend of mine during waiting the luxury Starbucks, so I wanna introduce it!
Here is a Oden restaurant, which is traditional and delicious restaurant, in Nakameguro. This restaurant is located at a street beside a station.
This Oden is based on Chicken soup. So the flavour is, of course, authentic but it’s very original.
Main Oden’s ingredients are a radish, boiled egg, konnyaku.
However…
I ordered this. It’s a cartliage and chicken’s hip. It’s very rare to have this in Oden. The reason is this Oden restaurant is based on chicken. That’s way, the menu is characterized.
Moreover, and as you check my blog, there is more fashionable restaurant and luxury Starbucks so you can enjoy to take a walk.

2. Omotesando Street
Omotesando is a stylish and upscale street in the Shibuya and Minato wards of Tokyo, Japan, renowned for its chic boutiques, trendy cafes, and architecturally stunning buildings. Often referred to as Tokyo’s Champs-รlysรฉes, this tree-lined avenue is a hub for luxury shopping, featuring flagship stores of high-end brands like Louis Vuitton, Prada, and Dior. The street also boasts a mix of modern and traditional architecture, with sleek, contemporary designs juxtaposed against classic Japanese aesthetics. Omotesando is not just a shopping destination but also a cultural hotspot, attracting both locals and tourists with its vibrant atmosphere and visually appealing surroundings.
When you walk around Omotesando, you’ll see some high brand shops. In order to enjoy shopping, It’s great spot to visit there.
We went to an Omotesando hills to have a lunch. It’s called Yasaiya Mei(ใใใๅฎถใใ๏ผtranslates” The Vegetable House MEI”. This restaurant offers vegetalian meals.
I ordered this lunch menu. It’s a combo with Soba and original salad cuisine. To have a lunch, I didn’t order heavy meals. It was successful to select vegetalian’s menu. Plus, all ingredients are so fresh, so you can enjoy to have a healthy cuisine!
Yasaiya Mei’s detail: JPY5,000-8,000
3. Omotesando: Nezu Art Museum
The Nezu Art Museum, located in the Minato ward of Tokyo, Japan, is a cultural gem renowned for its exquisite collection of pre-modern Japanese and East Asian art. Founded by businessman and collector Nezu Kaichirล, the museum houses a diverse array of artworks, including calligraphy, painting, sculpture, and ceramics, spanning from ancient times to the Edo period. The museum building, designed by the celebrated architect Kengo Kuma, seamlessly blends modernist architecture with traditional Japanese elements, creating a serene and contemplative space. The surrounding traditional Japanese garden, with its lush greenery, ponds, and teahouses, offers a peaceful retreat, making the Nezu Art Museum a harmonious fusion of art, nature, and architecture.
The most interesting things is that this museum is located on Omotesando, which means that it’s in a centre of the city. Actually, when I go through Omotesando Street, a surrounding is like office town. However, once you go into the museum, you’ll forget to stress of suburb.

4. Shibuya: Miyashita Park
Miyashita Park, situated in the vibrant Shibuya district of Tokyo, Japan, is a modern urban oasis that combines green space, recreational facilities, and shopping in a unique multi-level complex. Recently renovated, the park now features a rooftop area with lush lawns, sports facilities including a skateboard park and climbing wall, and ample seating for relaxation amidst the city bustle. Below the rooftop, visitors can explore a range of trendy shops, restaurants, and cafes, making it a dynamic destination for both leisure and entertainment. With its contemporary design and integration of nature and urban amenities, Miyashita Park offers a refreshing retreat and a lively community hub in the heart of Tokyo.
The last time, Honkai starrail’s real event was held in the park. Last April, Starrail was the first anniversary. I completely forgot to buy a ticket…
Anyway, Miyashita park is one of a landmark in Shibuya. This park is known as a symbol of diversity so, every month, many promotional and street events are held.
5. Shibuya: a Restaurant for a Dinner
Finally, we went to this Shabu Shabu restaurant to have a dinner. It’s Tsukada, which is my favorite brand restaurant.
The character is a quality. They offer the freshest ingredients. Flavors and texture, everything was perfect. In my opinion, to have this quality foods, it spend more expensive. But costs was about JPY5,000-6,000 per person.
Totally, Shabu Shabu Tsukada was very good. To have a healthy foods, try it!!!
*Be careful. Shibuya is very famous sightseeing spots and many inbound customers are visiting. At dinner time, most restaurants are full booked so you may wait about an hour.
That’s all! Not only these spots I introduced but also other spots are there like Shibuya Sky. Shibuya is the most innovative city in Japan so the city is changing every year.
