The Shinjuku Government Metropolis Building, taken in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan. ... it's quite an obscure design for a building, particularly if you view it from the entrance area.

In a Sunday morning, tourists and local flocks into Asakusa Kannon Temple (Sensoji) grounds, Tokyo's most famous and popular religious place. The legend says that in the year 628, two brothers fished a statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy, out of the Sumida River, and even though they put the statue back into the river, it always returned to them. Consequently, Sensoji was built there, being the oldest temple in town.

Tokyo - Bossa Nova in Marunouchi

Downtown Tokyo, almost 1 PM. I was going to the Imperial Palace Gardens when I heard a very familiar sound: "The girl from Ipanema" was in the air, played by a Japanese duo ("Sapatos", or "Shoes", in English), in a pedestrian street, close to Tokyo Station. It was a very amazing feeling!
