Tokyo: Random shots plus Skytree

Senso-Ji at night, including Asakusa Shrine; a restaurant with a funny name; and Tokyo Skytree, which is incredibly big. I somehow did not know until we were there, and looking it up, that the Skytree is in fact the third tallest structure in the world, at 634 meters (2,080 ft). We didn't go up in it, just got right under it, which was impressive enough.

My trip to Japan

I've recently got back from a 12 day trip to Japan. I was hoping to spot at least one Kitaro during my stay and boy, did Japan deliver!

The squad just next to Sensoji temple in Asakusa, like 50 m from my hotel.

In a manga store in Harajuku. Medama Oyaji bathing in the rice bowl was mad expensive as you can see. What are you, made of gold? Apparently yes! The retro figures were super cute too.

Mandarake in Shibuya in a dope collage of both Shigeru Mizuki and Osamu Tezuka characters. There's also my man, Black Jack.

Honourable mention for a cute handmade Amabie in a souvenir store in Arashiyama, which is known for the bamboo grove.
