Yep, keep in mind that I am an admirer of Harajuku Style that was spread among anakmuda today. And deliberately applying it in my appearance walaupuan constrained by campus regulations may be longish and macem ga-macem. Be my style with a minimalist all that mattered already smells harajuku. So why is the trend of value disheveled art was called harajuku? ngasal kagak definitely right?
You see, actually harajuku which we already know as one style of dress and hairdo that many sebagain embraced by the young man was popular designation for the area around JR Harajuku Station, District of Shibuya, Tokyo. Well, in this area known as the place young people gather (kongkow). Location according to what I've read covers the area around the Meiji Jingu (Meiji Shrine), Yoyogi Park, shopping centers JalanTakeshita (Takeshita dori), department store Laforet, and the Yoyogi National Gymnasium. the extent of how do not ask me, because obviously I have never been there. Around the 1980's, Harajuku area is home to a subculture Takenoko-zoku ie young people who express themselves with clothes according to people at the time was a bit strange. Yes you can imagine how its shape. To this day a group of young people dressed in weird it can be found in the surrounding area of Harajuku as their hangout. In addition, school children from various corners of Harajuku in Japan often incorporate a study tour destination during a visit to Tokyo. So in addition as a place to get together, because the place where the so keeksotisan tourist destinations in the surrounding areas of Tokyo.
Prior to the Edo period, Harajuku is one of the town inn (juku) for people who travel through the Main Street route Kamakura. The Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu rewarded the mastery of Harajuku to ninja from Iga Province who helped him escape after the incident Honnoji Sakai. In the Edo period, a group of ninja from Iga set up headquarters in Harajuku to protect the city of Edo because of its strategic location in the southern part of Main Street Koshu. Originally tau aja, Edo is the famous city of Japan during the past so often contested by the rulers. In addition to the ninja, the samurai class Bakushin also choose to reside in Harajuku. There, the farmers move to plant rice in the Shibuya River area and use the mill to grind rice or make flour. In the Meiji era, Harajuku was built as a critical area that connects the city with the region surrounding Tokyo. In 1906, JR Harajuku Station opened as part of the Yamanote train line extension. After that, Omotesando (the main road to the temple) was built in 1919 after the Meiji Jingu shrine was founded.
