Harajuku is a prime spot to see the more unique aspects of Tokyo's youth and fashion culture. There are tons of teenagers dressed up in cosplay dresses, typically as dolls, gothic, schoolgirls, etc. There are also lots of trendy shops for fashion and accessories.

For us, the main attraction was the famous crepe shops in the heart of the area - Marion Crepes and Angels Heart. We definitely had to try both.
