Vertical
Retail. 🏬

Shibuya doesn't sprawl; it stacks. Navigate the multi-level labyrinths of fashion, tech, and subculture.

Tower 01: The Cultural Hub

Shibuya Parco. 🎮

This isn't a normal mall. Rebuilt in 2019, Parco is the physical manifestation of "Cool Japan." It stacks high-end fashion on the bottom, Nintendo and Pokémon on the 6th floor, and a cyberpunk food court in the basement.

6F: Cyberspace

Home to the **Nintendo Tokyo** store, **Pokémon Center**, and **Jump Shop**. Expect lines.

B1F: Chaos Kitchen

A neon-lit basement with experimental bars, a record shop, and even a bug-eating cafe.

🍄
LEVEL 06
Tower 02: The Cylinder

Shibuya 109. 💄

The cylindrical tower that defined "Gal" culture in the 90s. Today, it remains the epicenter of teenage trends. It is loud, crowded, and unapologetically feminine.

The Layout

10 floors of tiny boutiques jammed next to each other. The music changes every 5 meters.

Purikura

The basement (B2) has one of the best Purikura (photo booth) arcades in the city.

Magnet 109

Don't confuse it with the men's version nearby ("Magnet"), which has the rooftop crossing view.

🐧

Open 24 Hours

Mega Don Quijote

Tower 03: The Jungle

Mega Donki. 🛒

The biggest Don Quijote in Tokyo. It is a 7-floor assault on the senses selling everything from Rolex watches to matcha KitKats and Pikachu onesies. It is open 24/7, making it the perfect late-night activity.

Survival Tip:

Start at the top floor and work your way down. The checkout lines on the 1st floor are insane; use the registers on the upper floors instead!

Tower 04: The Rooftop

Miyashita Park. 🛹

A genius piece of urban design: a shopping mall with a public park on the roof. It features luxury brands like Louis Vuitton alongside a skateboard park and a rock climbing wall.

Shibuya Yokocho

A massive food hall on the ground floor designed to look like a retro alleyway. It serves regional dishes from all over Japan.

KitKat Chocolatory

Here you can make your own custom KitKat bar with toppings of your choice. A great souvenir (if you don't eat it first).
