Shibuya Hyakken Stores, located in Shibuya ward of Tokyo, has a rich history dating back to the late Edo period. Initially a rural area, it gradually transformed into a commercial zone. Especially during the post-war economic boom, numerous shops and eateries sprang up, marking a series of transformations to the present day.
The name "Hyakken Stores," literally meaning "a hundred shops," was derived from the original number of stores, which has since grown. The area is a melting pot of diverse establishments including thrift stores, cafes, bars, and restaurants, attracting a wide range of customers from young people to the elderly.
In recent years, it has also become a hub for local artists and creators, adding to its cultural allure. Close to Shibuya Station and easily accessible, it's a popular spot for tourists. Shibuya Hyakken Stores continues to evolve and offer new attractions, mirroring the changing face of Shibuya.
