Beneath the towering presence of Shibuya FUKURAS, a vibrant energy pulsed. The year was 2019. Tokyo welcomed this new architectural marvel to its iconic Shibuya skyline. Shibuya FUKURAS isn’t just steel and glass. It’s a carefully curated collection of experiences. The name itself, derived from the Japanese word “fukuramasu” meaning “to inflate,” embodies the building’s purpose: to fill visitors with happiness. Shibuya FUKURAS stands directly across from JR Shibuya Station’s west exit. It’s a convenient hub for travelers, boasting a bus terminal with connections to both Narita and Haneda airports. Need assistance? The first floor houses “Shibuya-san,” a tourist information center and art gallery. It offers everything from maps and travel advice to currency exchange and luggage storage. Evenings at Shibuya-san transform the space into a cozy bar. You can savor unique cocktails and soft drinks made with Japanese ingredients, like the Kyoto Uji matcha latte with butterfly-pea tea jelly.

Beams Japan, a must-visit, features limited-edition shirts showcasing the iconic Hachiko logo and Shibuya Crossing designs. Meet Shibuya’s first digital Hachiko on the second floor. This holographic version of the loyal dog offers interactive fun. Nearby screens showcase a 30-minute film by projection-mapping artist Naked. This captivating film celebrates Shibuya’s cityscape, vibrant culture, and even provides weather updates. On the fifth floor, Pepper Parlor awaits. This futuristic cafe employs Pepper, a semi-humanoid robot, to take orders in multiple languages and recommend dishes based on your mood. Enjoy specialty waffles, play digital games with Pepper, and watch the Nao robots dance. Ascend to the 17th floor and discover Shibu Niwa, a rooftop garden with breathtaking views. From here, gaze upon Shibuya’s famed scramble crossing, Yoyogi Park, and Shibuya Scramble Square. The 17th and 18th floors also house Célé La Vi, a stylish restaurant and bar with locations in Singapore, France, and Taipei. Shibuya FUKURAS is more than a building.
