Shibuya Crossroads

Ever wonder how do Shibuya look like?
It's a shopping heaven for boys and girls!
It's the Japanese version of Times Square NYC. Everything is so happening here! Turn yourself around and you can see all sorts of stores and advertising signs waiting for you! F.Y.I, Shibuya has also got the largest Forever 21 in Asia!

Do you know that Shibuya has got a very famous cross-road that is has got the title as "the most crossed road per crossing"? I learned from a statistic that there are approximately 5000 people crossing every time the lights turn green!! Can you imagine that??????! EVERY CROSS!!!  Yours truly cannot believe it until she sees that herself!!


It's always this crowded every time I go there.
I always think..... Are all this people being hired by the Japanese government to cross the road so that it will become an icon/tourist attraction??

The Hachiko station


In front of this station got a dog statue named Hachiko. Guess you all heard this story before right?
It's about a loyal and faithful dog who waited for its master to return from work everyday  in front of this station. This happy routine continued until one fateful day, when the professor was taken ill on the job and unfortunately died before he could return home.
Hachiko continued to wait each day at Shibuya station for a friend who was never coming back.


Have you ever see any unusual crossroads too?? Do tell me about it! =)
Last but not the least, the video of people crossing... In case you would like to see XD



Is the video ok? 
Is the audio on? It's weird because the music can be played on iPhone's youtube! =(
