Shibuya Crossing

Shibuya Crossing defines itself by the massive scramble of people that fills the intersection whenever the traffic lights turn red. This wide, open junction at the center of the district functions as a human tide, with thousands of pedestrians surging forward from every direction at once. It grew from a simple train station access point in the nineteen twenties into the world's busiest scramble intersection. A commuter named Hachiko once waited here daily for his master, even years after the man had died.
