Tokyo - Not Temples and Cherry Blossoms

Tokyo isn't all temples and cherry blossoms. The buildings, by big-city standards, aren't all that tall, which allows for some very cool architecture. Like so much of Japan, where what you see is important, the buildings are works of art all by themselves. Here are some glimpses of just a few.

Tres cool.

Night time transforms everything.

We're off to Takayama this morning, to a more traditional perspective of the country.

More later...
