The crown jewel of the Roppongi Hills urban development, this 54-story skyscraper rises up above the waste and detritus that roam the entertainment district’s streets at night.  The building itself, as well as the district it’s located in, has had its fair share of incidents over time.

Most come in three flavours: Miso, Shoyu (soy sauce), and Shio (salt).  Personally, I prefer the miso chashu (miso with sliced pork) variety.

The bustling cities of Japan empty out during this week long event in August.  Family members return to their home towns to remember those that have already left this world.

For every finger you point at someone, there are three pointing back at you, and a thumb pointing kinda off to the side somewhere…

Between Ogawara and Shibata towns, a thousand cherry blossom trees line the Shiroishi River. Thousands upon thousands of tourists visit the area in May to enjoy ‘Hanami’, cherry blossom viewing.
