This is just a part of the whole of Tokyo Imperial Palace, yes the river surrounding the whole palace! A small little part of it, just imagine how big it is, and it is well preserved at the heart of Tokyo.

Urban Heritage
Quote of the day : What's the point of being alive if you don't at least try to do something remarkable?

Silent Night
Quote of the day : The sky has never been the limit. We are our own limits. It’s then about breaking our personal limits and outgrowing ourselves to live our best lives.

Smoking Hot Ride
Quote of the day : If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we aren't really living. - Gail Sheehy
Saw this ride back at Tokyo, sleeping inside some kind of mechanic shop. I wonder if it is for display only or owned by the boss of that tiny shop.
Actually was attracted by how the lighting lights the helmet, but ended up that specific part is polluted by flares. =.=||| Oh well, another reason to not shoot HDR with filter next time >.<
PS : Still looks good to me thou, with the flares =D

Sensō-ji Main Hall, Asakusa
Alright, like F.I.N.A.L.L.Y. I am able to update the blog again! Its been years, being stucked at Singapore without my usual desktop, or any powerful-enough-to-edit-pictures laptop. The thing is, after being here for like more than 1 month now, nope I have not go around Singapore for some photo snapping yet.Lazy me. That brings me back to the remaining Japan pictures.
Here is the famous must go place at Asakusa, Tokyo. This is the front gate, Kaminarimon and to the far end lays this magnificent temple sleeping in the middle of the night. Love how the angry cloud formed at the back.
PS : Edited on the name of the building which is actually called Sensō-ji Main Hall

Kaminarimon
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 for the goddess of Kannon. The temple was completed in 645, making it Tokyo's oldest temple.
This is the "Thunder Gate" of Sensoji Temple located at Asakusa, taken on the last night of my stay at Tokyo T_T
A place you must visit at Tokyo, with loads of awesome architectures (within walking distance) and shops (middle of the picture, both left and right are shops in the morning) along the road straight to the temple.

Police Patrol Car
Quote of the day : I may not change the world, but I'm sure to spark the mind that will. - Tupac Shakur
One of the familiar scene that we can see in Japan anime, the Japanese police patrol car. Definitely has a humble look but way more powerful that our Waja, me think.

Serene Night Street at Tokyo
Having go and dig back some picture from my Japan trip really makes me miss that wonderful country so much now. This one taken outside the place I stay at Tokyo, Khaoshan Annex. It is actually at the right side of the picture, where all the bicycle parked (that is actually the outside the guest house). Regretted that I didn't really give the guesthouse a shoot now.
Love how serene the street is, absolutely not worried about being rob carrying my gears walking alone on the street at 1am (as a comparison, at Japan 9pm is like 12pm at Malaysia, all shop is closed and not much people on the road. So 1am at Tokyo is really very very late.). This is seriously not gonna happen at Kuala Lumpur. Walking alone with my gears? No way! Not even when it is 9pm where there are full loads of people on the street!

Random Temple
Quote of the day : It is impossible to begin to learn that which one thinks one already knows. - Epictetus
Another thing I like about travelling at Japan is that they preserve all of their temple, from generations such as this one. And somehow, that area that we went have a lot of different temples and shrines. Too bad I don't really have the time to visit all of it and take my time snapping them, just manage to get this one. =/

Tokyo Tower
Video of the day :
If you've never failed, you've never lived!
Tokyo Tower (東京タワー Tōkyō tawā) is a communications and observation tower located in Shiba Park, Minato, Tokyo, Japan. Built in 1958, standing at 332.5 metres (1,091 ft), it is the second tallest artificial structure in Japan. The structure is an Eiffel Tower-inspired lattice tower that is painted white and international orange to comply with air safety regulations.
Tokyo Tower has two observation decks—the Main Observatory and the Special Observatory; both offer a 360 degree view of Tokyo and, on clear days, Mount Fuji can be seen to the south.
PS : You can see how the sky is lit up by the tower.

Japan Day 1 Part 2, Tokyo
Took train and reached Ueno from Asakusa.
The Ueno panda.
At Ueno Onshi Kōen, sort of a big park. Would have an amazing scenery if it is spring!

Japan Day 1 Part 1, Tokyo
Quote of the day : The first step you take is always the most important one. The first steps you take on any journey won't get you where you want to go. But without those first steps and the many more that follow, you would always be standing right where you are, looking towards the future and wondering what it would really be like to see your world the way you always dreamed it could be. One of the greatest lessons in life is the one you learn about moving forward and taking steps to reach your goals.
From Cyberia to LCCT by taxi.
WeiHong, he is so excited on the way to LCCT.
WeiHong, Vivian, TeeHai and YinLing at LCCT waiting to check in.
