There are many, many things to see in Tokyo. This is only a fraction of what there is to see in Tokyo...
(There are 34 million people in a 30 mile radius around central Tokyo. It is almost twice the size of New York City. Much of the city had just as many people crowded into an area, just like in this picture near Ueno station. These were people going shopping to prepare for the coming of the new year.)
(Paris has the Eiffel Tower, Tokyo has the Tokyo Tower. We didn't actually go up the tower since the line was about 30 minutes deep)
(Attempting to walk down a busy street in the Harajuku neighborhood. It is an area popular among younger people for trendy fashions and brand name stores.)
(This is one of my favorite stores in Tokyo..Itoya. This is the sign outside the store. It is 9 floors of stationary, office supplies, and office furniture. It is nothing like Office Depot or any of those stores in the US. They have an entire floor dedicated to pens and pencils. I bought a few myself because they were just so cool!! I am such a dork..=) )
(In the Ginza district there is a Nissan Gallery/Showroom. There is no sales...there are just at most two cars on display. This time the soon-to-be-released GT-R was on display. It will also be on sale in the US, and I'm sure people can't wait to drive it! =) )
(A picture of gyoza (pot stickers) we ate in a chinese restaurant in the Ginza district. They were about 3 times the normal size of pot stickers...and soooooo good!!! Not exactly a tourist attraction...but I thought I'd post it anyway =) )
