"Sando" is the name given to roads leading up to shrines for the purpose of visiting them. Omote-sando stretches west from Meiji Jingu Shrine, built in 1920. Currently, it is home to top brands like Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior, and has become a mecca for the city's fashionable people. Lined with trees, this avenue's many open cafes offer an escape from the noisy strip outside.
