Tokyo 8K Shibuya to Harajuku Street View by Train

Shibuya to Harajuku / Omotesando is one of the great Tokyo 1-2 punches for tourists visiting the city. Today in vibrant 8K, we'll walk to the Yamanote Line and take the train to Harajuku, walk down Takeshita Street and up to Omotesando Station.
Live streams are usually in 720p so we skipped HD and 4K to went straight to 8K. Why? Why not!
You can also watch in HD and 4K or even 144p if you like :) the power of KZread.

    Note: KZread removed the 8K feature at times. It's here sometimes, it's gone other times but it was filmed and uploaded in 8K.

    So sad to see the old Harajuku station gone. I hoped that the facade could have been integrated into whatever took its place. Many happy and poignant memories of that old building, saying goodbye to friends after a happy Sunday afternoon, taking a breather there after the Meji shrine New Years chaos, lingering over a good bye kiss, the crush in the overpass, too bad another piece of Tokyo history is gone.

    I remember going to Takeshita Dori 15 years ago. Just walking around there on Sunday morning was incredible. The journey started in Yoyogi Park where there were groups of rockabillies with weird hair dancing around a cassette, then crossing a bridge where all the lolitas, goth and punk youngsters gathered and finally ending in Takeshita Street, doing window shopping around independent designers shops. Now it looks like that people go there for the Ikea and the crepes... Well, things change I guess, but I feel lucky that I witnessed that japanese rebel culture at that time Thanks for the video, 8K looks gorgeous!

I think it’s just because I’m so used to the iPhone streams and your DSLR has a better sensor to capture everything. If you can, please do more and maybe even of nature or parks!

    Thanks for bringing back the memories John. Loved visiting Harajuku in 2018 just before the old station closed. But I hardly recognise the place now. Shame about the chain stores taking over. You lose the uniqueness and could just be in any other city in the World. Keep it special, I agree. Great video.

Yokosuka town is kilometers below the area. Zushi Beach is to the west of the region. In your style of video. I recall taking the train from Yokosuka up to mostly Yokohama, with some Tokyo. I heard the Japanese fleet was kept at Yokosuka during W.W. II if wanting to research history.
