Shibuya is a “must see” destination for visitors to Japan, many who come for the shopping and the taking in the sights around the major intersection in front of the train station. When you leave the Shibuya Station through the Hachiko exit, you’ll pass the statue of the dog after which the exit is named. This small public square is commonly used as a meeting place, and is watched by a memorial of the Akita-ken dog Hachiko, whose story of loyalty and love for his owner became legendary after he waited around 10 years for his late master to return to their usual meeting spot. ~
