Google Maps reviews of this place

Un lugar muy iconico. En general la zona es espectacular. A pesar de haber mucha gente, se hace fila para poder tomar bellas fotos. Recomiendo visitar el cafe frente a la estatua, tienen lindos souvenirs.
Demasiado concurrido, si uno quiere tomarse una foto debe ser rápido y hacer fila. Buen punto de reunión ya que hay un centro de información y está una de las salidas de la estación del metro.
Estatua de Hachiko literalmente al lado del Shibuya Crossing. Recomiendo ir de día y hay fila para tomarse la foto. Creo que la estatua tiene un significado emocional importante por todo lo que representa la lealtad y la puntualidad japonesa, además de que el Shiba es “la mascota oficial” de Shibuya. No obstante, es una estatua común glorificada por instagram. Bonito, sin más.
