Under construction

Shibuya is in the middle of a long redevelopment. Passages and signs move often, so trust the signs on the day over any map, including ours.

Lines on many levels

The Ginza Line is on the 3rd floor, while the Toyoko and Fukutoshin Lines are five floors underground. Allow time for the height difference.

Use an IC card

Suica or PASMO lets you move between JR, Tokyo Metro, Tokyu and Keio gates without buying a ticket each time.
