Shibuya Station: the Hachiko Exit and the Scramble Crossing

Shibuya Station (G01) has the Ginza Line, the Hanzomon Line and the Fukutoshin Line of Tokyo Metro, and the JR Yamanote Line. JNTO also lists the JR Saikyo and Shonan-Shinjuku lines, the Keio Inokashira Line and the Tokyu Den-en-toshi and Toyoko lines.

The Scramble Crossing: the Hachiko Exit

JNTO's page says the crossing is "located directly outside Shibuya Station's Hachiko exit". That is the exit to look for on signs and maps. It also says the station began operating in 1885, that nearly three million people pass through it each day, and that at the busiest times an estimated 1,000 to 2,500 people cross the intersection every two minutes. The crossing took its present shape in 1932, when the Tokyu Toyoko Line opened.

Hachiko

The bronze statue of Hachiko, the dog that waited for his owner at Shibuya Station, stands outside the same exit.

Typing it

Shibuya is seven letters (渋谷). It is the first stop of the Ginza Line, G01, so the Ginza Line guide starts here.

Walking times and exit names here are the ones published by the official tourism pages and agencies listed below. Big Tokyo stations are rebuilt all the time and exits move or close, so follow the signs in the station as well.
