Daikanyama is the anti-Shibuya: a shopping district that favours small boutiques, quiet streets and a wealthy, impeccably dressed clientele (occasionally walking impeccably dressed dogs). Not everything here is outrageously priced, and it can be an excellent place to discover Japanese designers, as many have shops here (start at La Fuente Mall). If shopping’s not your thing, take a seat at one of the neighbourhood’s excellent people-watching cafes, like Sign.
