The main reason we were in the Harajuku area was because we wanted to see the flea market by the Togo Shrine
Things are not cheap in the market…like this helmet which I spotted and knew my Dad would like…It was going for around 60,000 yen! The black one was 47,000 yen!
Togo Shrine “Antique Flea Market”
If it is rainy, the market will be called off

Place: @Togo Shrine Address: 1-5-3 Jingumae Shibuya-ku Tokyo

about 5 min. walk from Takeshita Exit of JR Harajyuku Station ( the JR Yamanote Line)

What did you buy?
Only my Mom bought something, a pair of japanese wooden dolls for 300 yen! I wish I had a photo. The rest of us did not buy anything, we just looked
Dude in the fourth photo, selling framed artworks looked like Ryuichi Sakamoto.
Thanks for this. I’ve always wanted to go to this place
I regret not getting the ” HELMET” …… shucks !
I saw a sign up today (1st Nov 2009) which said that after the December market, there would be no markets here more after 30 years of trading. What a shame.
