Grab your seat quick!

Guess what i came across when i was looking up fun things to do and see in tokyo??

The world's busiest starbucks in Shibuya,Tokyo !

Not that it serves the best starbucks coffee, it's being in front of the world's famous Hachiko crosswalk that makes it frantically packed day in, day out.

Yes, one of the cool things to do in tokyo is people watching, especially in Shibuya. A lot of people visit this starbucks just to feast their eyes on the busiest intersection on earth so it's extremely difficult to get a seat at the window. sounds crazy? maybe...but i'd love to check it out when i go to japan this summer..Watching waves of pedestrians going everywhere at once can be a breathtaking sight..

Here is a video of the famous 'scramble crossing' taken from Starbucks! LoL *wink*






i cant help wondering if it's possible to get lost in throngs of people when crossing...hmm
