Great Buddha in Nara / Kamakura are quite famous, and the 3rd biggest Buddha in Japan is located in Tokyo. It actually is in my hometown. I'm proud of that. Buddhism embraces any kind of things. I like this thought, although I'm an atheist.

Well, well, having 2 kids really makes your vacation really fun exciting and exhausting. One thing about it though, it makes you forget your age. Well that's what Mickey, Minnie, Donald mostly do to us, and our kids are the instrument. Disney Sea is not a different theme park compare to Disney Land,...

Be sure to check out Shimokitazawa. This is a district of Tokyo popular with college-age students and twenty somethings. The area has a very Berkeley-esque funk to it, and it's got tons of stores to bum around in. Basically, it's a lot of little shops surrounding the JR station. While you will s...

This art museum can be a little expensive but I think it is well worth it. The Mori is a rather small museum but the presentation of the pieces (ranging from post-impressionism to contp) is outstanding ( and this is coming from an art snob). The views of Tokyo can't be beat! ( I think this is the...

Well my dear friend, it is not off-limits to poor people like me an...

If you go to Japan you have to experience their culture and through the temples is one way of doing this!

If you do visit temples you must abide my the Japanese rules and show a lot of respect for your surroundings...
