Well I
learnt from Erwan that Juku means "Inn". Shin means
new by the way, if you're thinking of Shinjuku (which
I will chronicle later). I forgot to ask Erwan about
the meaning of Harajuku. Lots of Japanese word learnt
from Erwan... and he's not even Japanese! He's
French. He learnt to speak and write Japanese for 2
years.
Well, had lunch first at Mos Burger. Fish burger and strawberry milkshake. I took the black plastic Mos Burger coaster back with me as a cheap souvenir.
Takeshita Dori Street. This is where all the cools stuffs are. Videos to be uploaded soon.
Gaudy fashion!
More graffiti!
Art right next to it.
I like the messy wires overhead.
Takeshita street has the most eccentric and beautiful designs for a shopfront. Check it out.
Nice European style gaudy fashion.
Some youths doing graffiti art on the wall.
We then head down to the main street, can't remember the name exactly, but we are heading towards Meiji Jingu.
Up ahead I saw this!
Panda-themed confectionery and ice-cream shop!
We plodded on towards Harajuku station. Nice architecture.
Across the street is ....
Yes..snoopy house. Apparently Snoopy is HOT in Tokyo. There's quite a number of shops selling snoopy stuffs. Even in the train stations.
