The building in the middle has got to be my most favorite in this area! The surface is very detailed and with such an industrial look. Here's some more of it!

It's the same building on the left of this photo!

Thanks mate. It does look much better than 2 years ago. I always thought this part of TOkyo was the most organized.

Incredibly beautiful photographs once again bakasaurus. Specially the last ones with the trees with autumn leaves.

Next stop, western Tokyo, Meiji Shrine and Yoyogi park.

This leg of our trip was cut short unfortunately due to the sudden rain (forecast only said 30% chance), and my companion's headache.

Anyway, here goes.

Station beside Meiji Shrine and across that famous street in Harajuku..

The area is really a contrast to Tokyo, and in some parts it gets dark as in a real forest (of course this isn't really fake.)

Walking towards Yoyogi Park, the sky gets extra gloomy and wind began to blow.

Cars parked near Yoyogi Park entrance under the yellowing Gingko trees.

At the park's entrance, a flock of doves merrily flew about.


Time flies...

Next stop inside Yoyogi Park!

Inside Yoyogi Park. Weather was not so great so I thought this was a thinner crowd than usual. Also, it was a Saturday and the more eclectic patrons are not there.

Stunning pictures, thanks for sharing !!!

Out of curiosity, what does it feel to be a foreigner in a country so homogenous like Japan? do they treat you like one of them or do you feel left out?
