Konichiwa!
Takeshita St., also known as Harajuku, is dedicated to fashion. It
was made for younger generations (teens - young twenties) and holds all of Japan's latest trends. We
visited Harajuku twice during our time in Japan. Our first visit was on
Monday 8/4/14. We didn't have much time to look around that day and we
really wanted to go back. Our second visit was on Friday, 8/8/14, our
last full free day😭!

| Shops galore! |

| What's "Earty"? |

| Sam and I trying not to get lost in the crowd! And you can spot Coach Yoko further up front in dark pink. She's usually easy to spot because she's sooo tall! |

| Can you find Yoko in this photo? |
I'm so glad I was able to look at the rest of the stores during the second visit, because the
whole street is like a big mall! Some stores go up and some even go underground because
space is so limited. The narrow street is crowded with teenagers. Girls
wearing pretty dresses are walking with their friends, even with high heels
on!
In addition to the clothing stores, there are a lot of snack shops. There's Mc Donalds, crepe/waffle shops, ice cream shops, milk tea shops, etc. For about $2.20, you can snack on potato chips and ice cream. We had our lunch at one of the rice bowl shops.
