Shibuya, Tokyo - Urban Photography

One of the most impressive locations of my recent Tokyo trip was the large crossing at Shibuya station.

The traffic lights at Shibuya crossing change every 2 minutes and thousands of people from five directions are crossing. There is approximately a number of 100'000 persons passing through this crossing per hour. This makes the Shibuya crossing the busiest crossing in the world.


 My search on 500px.com for "Shibuya crossing" yielded a number of very exceptional images of that place.
