Today we visited Akihabara, a lively, loud an colorful neighbourhood in Tokyo, completely filled with electronics, manga, anime and game shops! Here are some impressions of this hectic area.
Manga and Anime everywhere you look
- Thousands of weirdly shaped buildings filled with games, dvds, books and electronics
- Neon lights and signs everywhere
- Extravagant manga cars
- The benches are all filled with people playing games on their Nintendo DS’s!
- This radiant cocktail is called “Tokyo Skytree”, named after the huge tower in Tokyo
- It’s not all huge bright stores in Akihibara, there are many of these tiny alleys with small electronic stores and stalls.
- Some fresh yakitori (chicken skewers), in a tiny restaurant built underneath the traintracks
