Many little side streets branch off it; you never know what you’ll find down those! Once we enter Takeshita Street we will visit “Daiso Harajuku”, which is a 100-yen shop that has stores all around the world. However, Harajuku’s store is a wonderful spot for purchasing souvenirs for friends and family. The store has so many small and cute items which are only available in Japan.

We can stop by any shop that may interest you at all! Reissue Café Once we pass through Takeshita-dori, we will have a short break at a special café called “Reissue”.
