Tokyo - fashion capital of the east

by Restless-in-kl - last update: Jan 3, 2006

Where high fashion .....

Ginza
Tokyo most famous fashion landmark is Ginza where everything is expensive. Nice to see but will leave a huge gaping whole in your wallet if you purchase :-)
Asakusa

.... meets ancient rituals ....

Then there is the traditional side of Tokyo. The famous Asakusa temple where locals and tourists alike flock here to seek blessings.

..... and weird wonderful dress sense

And don't miss Harajuku, a great place to marvel at these teens' dress sense where anything goes. The idea is to stand out from the crowds.

Welcome to the wonderful, ecclectic world of Tokyo!

Cons:"Very expensive city and at times very confusing too"
In A Nutshell:"The heart of Japan"

 I'm going to Tokyo in Dec. The Taito Ryokan looks scary. -_-" Thanks for the tips. Can't wait to eat sashimi at Tsukiji. :D
