The statue of Hachiko, outside of the oh-my-it's-huge Shibuya subway and train station. Hachiko was famous for his loyalty, coming to the station each day to greet his master each day. After his master passed away, Hachiko would return to the station each day to find him. The square around Hachiko's statue is packed with people, mostly teens. It's a popular meeting place and general hang-out. All the mobile phone carriers in Japan have had to install extra antennas, all aimed at this square, in order to handle all of the phone calls these kids make.
