Tokyo, Japan

 

Oh my gosh, I am so excited about being able to visit Tokyo!!!

This is a lively and vibrant city, that really lives up to it’s term: “East meets West”.

Totally awesome!

We got there in the evening and we didn’t go to bed until 1am.

This city has “everything”. We went eating, shopping, sightseeing, just walking around the city looking at all the vibrant and livelihood going on everywhere. Taking in all of Hong Kong`s smells and noise. It is such a busy city, full of colors!

This city is seriously packed with people! Everywhere you go, you will be surrounded by people. It can at times be difficult to walk through a street because of all the people. We had hard time to cross the streets and not get separated.

We visited Shinjuku which is known Tokyo's main entertainment and nightlife district. It's famous for its neon signs, 3D billboards, Tokyo's oldest and most prestigious department stores, known for its high-end fashion brands, gourmet food halls, restaurants, and seasonal events.

We also went to Shibuya Scramble Crossing.

Shibuya Scramble Crossing is a must-visit tourist spot in Tokyo, Japan. Known as the busiest pedestrian crossing in the world, it offers a unique and exhilarating experience. Watching the sea of people crossing the intersection from the surrounding buildings is a sight to behold.

Shibuya Crossing is the world’s busiest pedestrian crossing, with as many as 3,000 people crossing at a time at times.

We also went to Harajuku is a neighborhood in central Tokyo known for its fashion, anime, and "kawaii" culture. Harajuku is famous for being the kawaii, or cute, capital of Tokyo. Everything here is rainbow-colored, cute, fluffy, and covered in unicorns and kittens.

This was an exciting, intersting night to say at least.

More Tokyo pictures to come.
