Shibuya District of the major Japanese city of Tokyo seems to be a business related district. Major corporate offices are stationed at Shibuya including a branch of Tachibana Laboratories. The level of heavy commercialism is balanced by the consumer commercialization and the residential districts around Shibuya. Shibuya's residents are in the hilly area of the city while the commercial areas reside on the more level terrain. Popular places in Shibuya are the square which hosts most of it's shops and stores including a night club named Cyberia. The school district is also inside the commercial area and is connected to the residential area via cable car. The student who do not live in the high rise apartments of Shibuya take the cable car to school. Shibuya boasts beautiful greenery surrounding and infiltrating the district as well as access to the river which runs along side downtown.
