A full cycle of the lights at Shibuya pedestrian crossing, the busiest pedestrian crossing in the world.

Clip taken from Starbucks (naughty! supposed to be no pictures!), opposite the main Shibuya station (enjoy our coffee related banalia).

  • Aaaah! My aunt farm broke!!!

    Seems like everyone who goes to Japan loves it. Its been a dream of mine since I was young.

    I justrecently saw a special about Shibuya on Sundays, with younger people in their costumes etc.

    The footage looks like a lot of people ...but somhow, I don't think this is even its busiest.

  • I took some shots of the cosplay kids, dressed up in their costumes at the Meiji Bridge in Harajuku on a bright Sunday morning. You can check out my flickr set here: http://tinyurl.com/lufdj

    I really did love it over there, you're right! And yes, this was far from the busiest the crossing got - rush hour on Friday was mad.

  • i recoment tokyo to anyone who wants to have a good fun holiday. i got back 3 days ago and i loved it.

    theres so much people and crazy lights at night, and all the young people were crazy cloths. its amazing

  • They remodeled the Starbucks since you took this. You can get better views now from bars and the big hyaku en store that are just off the screen to the right.

  • Tokyo is sooo much better than LA! In LA you have to sit in traffic to do ANYTHiNG; while Tokyo is crowded the city works like a well oiled machine. You can walk anywhere here, and it takes the train the same time to get from point A to B during rush hour or not!

  • can u actually hear the tvs?

  • Great video! I wrote a blurb about it here: http://www.walkableneighborhoo­ds.com/article/video-busiest-p­edestrian-crossing-in-the-worl­d

    Tokyo is a such a great city, and very pedestrian-friendly.
