Say hello to Hachikō, cross the famous Shibuya Crossing . Shop at Center Gai (main shopping street), and spend all your money at Loft and the a-maz-ing Tokyu Hands, there is now a café on the 9th floor

Love this guy. I've watched the movie in Japanese... and the re-make with Richard Gere. Cried both times. Of course, the Japanese one is much better... ;)

Artyom Fedosov

Probably the most well-known dog in the world. Still waiting for his master .

Clarie Lia

The shibuya scramble cross.. foods around also good, good atmosphere too, and very crowded

Once you get off at the Shibuya station, go out the Hachiko Exit to see his murals and statue . There is also the Hachiko bus that goes around Shibuya for 100JPY.

Hachiko will always wait for his master ???? Bonus! A sweet kitty lives at the statue now, so you get two animals in one landmark ????????

Hachiko would wait every day for his master outside the entrance to Shibuya. I find it fascinating & wonderful that the Japanese people would honor Hachiko with a statue for his devotion.

Melissa Duffy

Great place to snap a photo of yourself with the famously loyal dog . This spot is a very popular meeting place

Mimi

Hachiko's story is so beautifully touching. You guys should watch the movie . I really hate how they made a smoking booth right next to the Hachiko statue . Why would you do that?! Ruined it for me.

Jeff Forbes

Woof. This dog apparently would wait for his master at the station every day (even for 9 years after he died!) Devotion!

Duke Posh

Nothing special much about this statue but the story behind this dog is incredible and must visit and photograph

Ronak Daya

Famous loyal dog in between the train station and the craziness of shibuya crossing . Wouldn't go out of the way to see it.

Eric Espiritu

On most days, especially on weekends, Hachiko becomes everyone's meeting place. Be prepared.

Stephen ????????????????????????????????????????????

Can be a little hard to find as there's always a lot of people here, but it's on the right side of Shibuya Crossing if you're facing away from the station.

Dirk

a must see in Tokyo - and don't miss finding out about the story of the dog - faithful beyond death

Hachiko dog statute is a must see- always super busy around it, hard to get close to it

Take a few minutes to observe the people around you. They're all waiting for someone. Despite the crowd, Hachiko is still a favourite rendezvous point.

Wan Chen

There's two kind of people around Hachiko : those meeting their friends, and those meeting Hachiko
