HARD RIGHT (the street that borders the plaza and goes under the train tracks)
Miyashita Park: From the Hachiko exit of Shibuya Station, cross the street that goes under the train tracks to your right and duck left into the first narrow alley you reach after you come out from under the tracks. It will dead-end at some stairs going up to your right. Go up the stairs and you’re at the park. If you want to skate or climb, buy a ticket at the clubhouse, located in the middle of the park.
