A Day in Harajuku: Beyond Meiji Jingu and Takeshita Street

Think you know Harajuku? Beyond the neon signs of Takeshita Street and the towering torii gates of Meiji Jingu lies a neighborhood of quiet charms and hidden creative hubs. Join us for a curated stroll through the 'other' Harajuku—where we start the morning with a touch of Sanrio-themed tradition at Togo Shrine, get lost in the innovative art of CAS:SPACE, and hunt for the perfect waterproof souvenir at B-SIDE LABEL.

From the whimsical feline world of the mofusand flagship store to a breathtakingly elegant finale at Haute Couture Omotesando, this itinerary is for the traveler who seeks a balance of playful pop culture and refined relaxation. Step off the beaten path with us and discover why Harajuku remains Tokyo’s most surprising district.
