Shibuya Crossing: world’s busiest intersection
incredible architecture design. and earthquake proof.
classic Tokyo taxi cabs. and there’s that rising sun.
morning commute and a break for a good drag.
such a land of contrasts; cultural history and modern architecture
food displays at many of the restaurant entrances.
tokyo fashion; never seen so many heels and so high
pachinko parlours; earplugs required
shinkensen (bullet trains): faster, smoother, more luxurious than you can imagine
the iconic mount Fuji
famous torii gates at Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto
a small praying place
a solemn prayer at the shrine.
beautiful traditional dress: Furisode kimonos
equally popular transportation. Lexus: 150km/h ; Shinkansen: 300km/h
August, 1945 - 8:00am: the Hiroshima exhibition hall; 8:30am: the atomic bomb dome
remaining rubble after the blast
such a moving memorial
“let the souls here rest in peace, for we shall never repeat the evil”
numerous graveyards on the northwest hills overlooking rebuilt hiroshima
cycling in the country town of kawaguchiko, to the north of Mount Fuji
clearly the odds and ends business is good!
i just loved this tiny little eatery on the quietest street just on the other side of the worlds busiest train station: shinjuku. more examples of the contrasts in japan
the golden nectar of the land.
so many street performers in tokyo; this one stood out above the rest
a very large moth
mount fuji at sunset in kawaguchiko
train traffic approaching shinjuku station; the one i got lost in; could not find my way out!
and one parting shot from Shibuya; i sat and watched this phenomenon for over an hour. thanks so much for viewing; love to hear any comments in the feedback. until next adventure, your’s truly, brent
