Shibuya Parco is a 10 story tall mall that was opened in late 2019 and provides a great spot for those who want to get away from the Shibuya crossing crowd despite being only a 5 minute walk away. Shibuya Parco offers all kinds of attractions, but make no mistake; this building is for anime and game lovers. The entire 6th floor is dedicated to manga, anime and game related stores such as Pokemon Center, Nintendo, Jump shop and more. On the 10th floor there is a rooftop park with an observation area. It might not be the same view from shibuya scramble sky tower but this one is free of charge and you can spend as much time as you feel like
And of course no mall is complete without a place to eat, so if you do decide to eat there consider checking out one of our recommended restaurants.
