Shibuya Sightseeing- Getting to Shibuya
What good is a Sightseeing website without information on how to get to them!? Anyway, it is quite simple to get to where the action is in Shibuya, here’s how:
Shibuya Station serves three different inbound Tokyo Metro subway lines and two inbound JR lines. The Tokyo Metro lines are as follows: Fukutoshin, Ginza, and Hanzomon.
The JR Lines are the Saikyo/Shonan-Shinjuku, and Yamanote Lines.
Of particular importance to foreigners/tourists is the Yamanote (Light Green) Line as it goes to virtually every Tokyo sightseeing spot or major station, and is laid out in a circular fashion so it is impossible to get lost. The whole trip takes about an hour.
Other Important Stations in Shibuya Ward: Shinjuku, Harajuku, Omotesando, Shinjuku San-Chome. A lot of sites don’t tend to mention that these places are all a part of Shibuya Ward, I like to go one step further. Some places are quite far from Shibuya Station such as the Meiji Shrine, which can actually be found near Harajuku if one gets off at Meiji-Jingumae Station.
Of course Harajuku and Shinjuku are cities in themselves, but they are all part of Shibuya, so they will be covered in detail as well!
Thank you for your readership, if you found anything helpful and would like to link to us, we’d love for you to do so.
