350 metres: from 11:00 to 18:00 cars cannot enter, and there is no smoking anywhere on the street.
The street runs down for 350 metres from the Takeshita exit of Harajuku Station to Meiji Avenue, and from 11:00 to 18:00 vehicles cannot enter it. It became what it is in the Seventies: the Palais France shopping centre opened in 1974, the shopkeepers' association was founded in 1977, and the first crêpe shop dates from the same year, which is why people eat while walking here. Smoking is not allowed anywhere on the street.
The shopping street for teenagers, which starts at the Takeshita exit of Harajuku Station and runs down for 350 metres to Meiji Avenue. It is not always pedestrianised: vehicles are excluded from 11:00 to 18:00.
