Harajuku (Tokyo JP)

Did I expect to see this street fashion, honestly not, and I didn't encounter it much, so I am at peace :)

Hachiko (Tokyo JP)

I have read about Hachiko story since I was in elementary school (I know... ages ago!). This time in Tokyo, I am visiting the statue, enjoy the story after the jump!

Scramble Crossing Shibuya (Tokyo JP)

Scrambled crossing of Shibuya, and reputed to be the busiest intersection in the world (and definitely in Japan), Shibuya Crossing is like a giant beating heart, sending people in all directions with every pulsing light change. Hundreds of people – can reach over 1000 people at peak time – cross at a time, coming from all directions at once yet still managing to dodge each other with a practiced nonchalant dexterity.

I experienced the hypnotic view over the crossing from the Starbucks on the 2nd floor of the Q-front building across the street.

Shinjuku Gyoen (Tokyo JP)

Here goes my travel post from Japan, I hope you guys enjoyed the images...

Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden is a large park and garden in Shinjuku and Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. It was originally a residence of the Naitō family in the Edo period. Afterwards, it became a garden under the management of the Imperial Household Agency of Japan. It is now a national park under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of the Environment.

The garden, which is 58.3 hectares in area with a circumference of 3.5 km, blends three distinct styles: a French Formal and English Landscape in the north and to the south a Japanese traditional. A traditional Japanese tea house can be found within the gardens.
