Takeshita Street is definitely one of the most famous places to visit in Harajuku, and I think it’s worth checking out at least once.
That said, it gets incredibly crowded, especially on weekends. There were so many people that it was sometimes hard to even walk through the street. You should also be a little careful, as there are people who approach tourists with questionable offers or promotions.
I tried the famous Harajuku crepes, and they were actually really good! I was expecting them to be quite expensive because they’re so famous, but the prices were surprisingly reasonable. Definitely worth trying!
The street is mostly about shopping, with lots of clothing, accessories, and small shops. There’s also a pretty large Daiso, which was fun to check out.
Honestly, though, I don’t think I would come back. Once you’ve walked around, done some shopping, and tried a crepe, there isn’t really much else to do. It’s a fun place to experience once, but the crowds can be overwhelming.
Overall, I’d say it’s worth visiting if you’re in Harajuku, especially for the atmosphere and the famous crepes, but one visit was enough for me.
原宿に来たら一度は行ってみたい有名な観光スポットです。
ただ、週末は本当に人が多く、混雑がかなり激しいです。人が多すぎて、ゆっくり歩くのも大変なくらいでした。通りでは、観光客に声をかけて怪しい勧誘をしている人もいるので、少し注意したほうがいいと思います。
有名な原宿のクレープも食べてみましたが、思っていたより値段が高くなくて、普通に美味しかったです。クレープはおすすめです！
竹下通りは洋服やアクセサリーなどを買ったり、食べ歩きをしたりするのがメインの場所だと思います。大きなDAISOもあり、そこは面白かったです。
ただ、正直なところ、一度行けば十分かなと思いました。とにかく混雑がすごく、観光スポットとして「見る・体験する」というより、買い物をしたり、クレープを食べたりしながら通りを歩く場所という印象です。
一度は行ってみる価値がありますが、個人的には何度も行きたい場所ではありません。
