This is the meeting place for Tokyoites and tourists. Touching the snout of the devout dog Hachikō will bring you luck!

This is where the statue of Shibuya's famous dog, Hachikō (1923-1935), who became famous in Japan for his devotion, is located. In the 1920s, he waited every day for his master to return from work. The latter died without being able to say goodbye to his dog. Hachiko waited for him every day for ten years in the square. At that time, Shibuya was a small suburb. Today, it is the meeting place of all Tokyoites and tourists. The tradition is to touch the snout of the animal to wish each other good luck.

The comforting history of Hachiko dog makes all the tourists that we want to take a photo with its report. Nice to enjoy the shade hot days and watch place people.

Super pour le quartier ultra animé de Shibuya. La statue est coincée dans la foule mais c'est bon enfant et Hachiko le toutou fidèle est toujours là au milieu d'un joyeux bazar.

La statue est vite vue, mais vous pouvez prendre 1min pour prendre une photo car il y a de grandes chances que vous passiez juste à côté... le fameux passage piéton de Shibuya !

A voir, surtout pour son fameux carrefour ou des dizaines de touristes sont postés un peu partout à attendre le passage au vert pour la traversez des piétons. Ne pas oublier d'aller voir Hachiko et de le toucher...(statue squatté par un chat le jour de mon passage)
