Ginza Line: Asakusa → Shibuya
The Tokyo Metro Ginza Line connects Asakusa G19 with Shibuya G01. You can travel between the two termini without changing trains.
From G19 to G01 without changing trains
This journey connects the Ginza Line’s two termini, Asakusa G19 and Shibuya G01. Look for the orange G symbol and board a Shibuya-bound train. Asakusa’s Tsukuba Express station is in a different location from the Ginza Line station, so even if your accommodation’s name includes TX, choose the entrance for the Ginza Line.
Journey time and fares by payment method
The representative train journey in the official main-section table is 33 minutes. Walking to the starting station, passing gates, waiting and reaching the exit after arrival take additional time. Fares are from Tokyo Metro’s official table as of April 1, 2026.

Travelling with luggage
The Ginza Line Asakusa guide lists a street elevator connecting the gate toward Senso-ji/Kaminarimon with entrance 1. The full route to the platform may involve other equipment, such as a stair lift; tell station staff your direction first when using a wheelchair or carrying large bags. At Shibuya, the above-ground and underground locations also vary by line, so check the gate name.
Choose a specific meeting place in Shibuya
Shibuya has separate access routes for JR, the Ginza, Hanzomon and Fukutoshin lines, Tokyu and Keio. If arriving on the Ginza Line, specifying the line, ticket gate and street-level destination is easier than meeting simply at “Shibuya Station.” For Manekineko Shibuya Main Branch, use 2-29-5 Dogenzaka (道玄坂2-29-5); for another branch, check its own address.
